GOVT 68 The Future of Capitalism

The first wave of capitalism was industrial: it took people off the farm and brought them to the city and the factory. The second wave, post-industrial capitalism, centered productive activities in services rather then manufacturing. Capitalism 3.0 may transcend the need for human labor more than ever imagined: machines and robots will do the work, especially the difficult, dirty, and monotonous work that has given "work" a bad name. What will capitalism of the future need to be if it is to be a prosperous and fair economic system. Course integrates economics, public policy, and political philosophy.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
