SOC-UA 386: American Capitalism in Theory and Practice
4.00 Credits
New York University
Investigates two governing principles of American society: the fact that it is a market society and the fact that it is a democracy. Examines how the fact of its being a capitalist democracy affects the distribution of goods, rights, and powers. Course themes discuss not only the question of whether capitalist markets are efficient, but also the question of whether market outcomes serve the ends of democracy and justice. Explores the ways in which efficiency can sometimes come into conflict with justice, and how just institutions can in turn have a beneficial impact on efficiency.
