<b>The Institute for Ethics in Public Life presents
</b><span><span><b> "Can Capitalism Be Ethical?", Wednesday, April 10 at 3:30pm.</b></span><br> <br></span></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:trebuchet ms,sans-serif"><span>With special guest Prof. Wanda Carroll, Lecturer in Supply Chain Management and International Business. </span><br><span> </span><br><span>Capitalism
as an economic system is often critiqued on ethical grounds. From Karl
Marx or Charles Dickens pointing out the human suffering endemic to
early industrial capitalism in Europe, through Thomas Piketty arguing
that increasing inequality of income and wealth are inherent to
capitalism, to Occupy Wall Street and beyond, it is not hard to find
critics who consider capitalism itself at best suspect on ethical
grounds, if not inherent unethical and impossible to reform.</span><br><span></span><br><span>For
this discussion, we will critically engage with this critique of
capitalism and consider whether it is fair to consider capitalism itself
unethical, or whether the real issue is how capitalism is implemented
rather than what it is.</span><br><span> </span><br><span>Daniel Lake is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.</span><br><span></span><br><span>Topic: Hybrid forum on the ethics of capitalism</span><br><span>Time: Apr 10, 2024 03:30 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)</span><br><span></span><br><span>Join Zoom Meeting</span><br><span><a href="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://plattsburgh.zoom.us/j/99137594347&sa=D&source=calendar&ust=1711302012442277&usg=AOvVaw3lDxkff3EdtUQ3gxcRupEN" target="_blank">https://plattsburgh.zoom.us/j/99137594347</a></span><br><span></span><br><span>Meeting ID: 991 3759 4347</span>
