Commercial philosophy: Science or religion
When: Thursday May 21, 2009 at 6:00pm
Where: Gresham College, Barnard's Inn Hall, Holborn, London, England EC1N 2HH
AdsThere are two types of people in the world - those who believe in markets and those who don't. Debate on the role of markets in society has taken on religious attributes.
- Saints or crooks?
- Public sector versus private sector?
- Rawls or Nozick: liberty or distribution?
- Regulated versus unregulated?
Surely there is a gap in the middle for a more scientific approach to commerce, but what might it look like and shall it arrive in time?
