Course Description
Because it is the driving force behind economic organizations worldwide, capitalism is a term that business leaders, executives, and employees should know well. Another reason to know this term well: it is at the center of much debate and controversy. At the same time that capitalism is praised for its ability to stimulate innovation and spur economic growth, it is criticized for its contribution to inequality and injustice around the world. This course will explore the topic of capitalism and its relationship to ethics, justice, and inequality.

Name key characteristics of a libertarian view of distributive justice

This was a very interesting course to take. To be honest, I was nervous that it would be too far in one direction (exclusively
for
capitalism or exclusively
for
socialism/anti-capitalism), however, I feel it was very even and provided a wealth (haha) of information and concepts that will help me to make ethical decisions in the future, as well as to understand the various ethical forces at play in our modern, money-making world.
