Justice

[RedCelt69]

Not sure how many people will be interested in this, but I've been following these lectures for the last few weeks, and thought I'd share. http://www.justiceharvard.org/

They are a series of lectures (currently 8 of 12) presented by Michael Sandel of Harvard. The first time the university has done such a thing with their lectures. Some of it is basic-level philosophy, but well-presented - with justice as the unifying theme.

I've only watch the trailer, which would be gear towards making it look good, but it worked. I think I'll enjoy watching that, thanks for the link.

Standard BBC-esque blurb "And if you liked Michael Sandel lecturing about Justice you may also like to read the text which accompanies his 2009 Reith lectures here http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/184614213X , though you can probably give The Case Against Perfection a miss."

Anyone had a look at these lectures? Any comments (positive or negative)?

They are very enjoyable. I think classes like these would be especially useful to teens in schools around the pre voting age, to help be understand who, what and why of politics without bias.
