  1. Part 1, Course Intro | Economics and the Pursuit of Happiness

Economics and the Pursuit of Happiness is the second course in ISI’s Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (PPE) Academy. In it we’ll explore the interrelations between the economy and government–markets and the public sector–and we’ll consider the deeper moral and philosophical questions that relate to markets. It offers students an interesting and well-reasoned look at today’s most important economic topics and how a proper understanding of them is necessary to support human flourishing.
