This week's Classical Et Cetera features a discussion on politics and civic engagement. From the common good approach in ethics to the philosophy of leadership in ancient Greek political thought, we have a pretty wide-ranging conversation!
Our main topic is civic engagement but quickly expands to Aristotle, Roman citizenship, the difference between traditional and modern political theory, and more! Join us for an overall summary on how ancient political thought still informs today's discussions on ethics, leadership, and the common good.
