"Can Capitalism Be Ethical?", Apr. 10 (W) at 3:30pm

[Daniel Lake]

 *The Institute for Ethics in Public Life presents ** "Can Capitalism Be
Ethical?", Wednesday, April 10 at 3:30pm.*

With special guest Prof. Wanda Carroll, Lecturer in Supply Chain Management
and International Business.

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.

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.

Daniel Lake is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.

Topic: Hybrid forum on the ethics of capitalism
Time: Apr 10, 2024 03:30 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)
