PHI345 Philosophy, Money and the Good Life (Fall, Spring)

To be offered in Fall 2025

Explores the nature and meaning of money for individuals and for society at large. Philosophers since Antiquity have wondered how money relates to a life well-lived. We consider classic theory, current policy, and personal dilemmas in light of questions such as how money got started, whether meaning and value can be defined in monetary terms, how gold differs from digital currency, and whether money is important.
