A Course on Economic Justice: The intersection of philosophy and economics

James Barbour and Nim T. Batchelor

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: The process of teaching a topic that inhabits the upper reaches of both philosophy and economic theory, while swooping as near the earth as political policy, is both exhilarating and terrifying. To do it well is indeed rare. We present our approach, some of the characteristics and thoughts from our students, and some of the insights that we developed along the way.
