Michael J. Sandel with Geoffrey Harpham: Democracy's Discontent
Thu, Nov 7 from 6pm - 7pm
Harvard political philosopher Michael Sandel explores themes from his recent works, Democracy's Discontent: A New Edition for Our Perilous Times and The Tyranny of Merit: Can We Find the Common Good? Sandel has been described as “a rock star moralist” (Newsweek) and “The world’s most influential living philosopher” (New Statesman). He analyzes the challenges to democracy and the pursuit of common good following the 2024 US election, and the turbulent international times in which we live, with Geoffrey Harpham, Emeritus Director of the National Humanities Center.
