About the Courses

These are handouts for some sessions of the seminar courses I’ve taught with Amartya Sen and Eric Maskin. These courses—with titles referring to concepts that are vital for the organization of our thoughts—are intended to give us the opportunity to live with these concepts, to understand them in the broadest manner possible, and to be sensitive to their different shades of meaning, and utility, in the various disciplines and domains of thought in while they play an important role.
