The Philosophy Café at Harvard Book Store is a monthly gathering meant for the informal, relaxed, philosophical discussion of topics of mutual interest to participants. No particular expertise is required to participate, only a desire to explore philosophy and its real-world applications. More information can be found at www.philocafe.org.
The Philosophy Café is held on the third Wednesday of each month at 7:30 in the Used Book department on the lower level of Harvard Book Store.
This month:
Does Liberty Require Free Market Capitalism?
Questions that we will consider will include:
(1) What conception of freedom ought to be our political ideal?
(2) What about claims for equality, or even fraternity (community or social solidarity)?
(3) Are equality and fraternity compatible with genuine liberty?
