Justice, What's The Right Thing To Do?
More than 14,000 students have taken Justice, making it one of Harvard's most popular classes. In this DVD series Professor Michael Sandel helps viewers become more critically-minded thinkers about the moral decisions we all face in our everyday lives. Sandel presents students with ethical dilemmas on modern day issues—such as affirmative action and same-sex marriage—then conducts lively, engaging, and remarkably intimate debates that challenge students' moral reasoning. Each week we will watch two episodes in which Professor Sandel introduces the principles and then engages with the students. We will devote time in each class to discuss the proposed conundrums.
