Who Should Control Our Public Schools?
February 27, 2018 @ 4:30 pm - 6:00 pm
featuring Alexandra Oprea, Research Assistant Professor of Philosophy, UNC-CH
Part of our “Policy Matters: The Philosophy, Politics, and Economics behind Our Most Pressing Issues” Humanities in Action Series.
This Spring we collaborate with theUNC/Duke Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (PPE) Program to highlight this interdisciplinary program’s faculty, who are exploring public issues in their research. For each contemporary challenge, we should ask: What is the ethical course of action? What political risks emerge in confronting it? What are the social and economic costs? Join us for 10 lectures on current controversies that demand ongoing dialogue.
All Humanities in Action events take place at Flyleaf Books in Chapel Hill. There are no preparatory readings for these events.
