3 credits Crosslisted With: HONS 320
This course will examine ethical issues relating to market systems and economic activity. Topics could include the ethical responsibilities of corporations, the comparative merits of market-based (e.g., capitalist) versus planned (e.g., socialist) economies, or applied topics in business ethics such as sweatshops, whistleblowing, or price-gouging. Our investigation will include arguments in ethics and political philosophy and will make substantial contact with other disciplines such as economics, political science, history, and psychology.
