PHIL/POLI/ECON 384.002 – Gateway to Philosophy, Politics, and Economics

Instructor: Myraeka d’Leeuwen. This course meets TR 9:30 – 10:45 a.m. in CW 105.

This interdisciplinary course provides an overview of some of the core conceptual tools used to analyze issues at the intersection of philosophy, politics, and economics (PPE). We will cover a range of theoretical topics, including game theory, voting theory, property, markets, and justice. We will then turn to applications of this theory on modern day social issues, such as inequality, free speech, sex work, and the legalization of illicit drugs. This course will draw from diverse perspectives, including work by classical, contemporary, and feminist authors.
