The Role of Philosophy in Modern Politics

Friday, September 19, 2008 - 12:00pm to 1:15pm
Admission is free. A light lunch will be served at 11.30 AM.

Featured Speakers:
Michael Boylan, author, The Good, the True, and the Beautiful;
Susan Neiman, author, Moral Clarity: A Guide for Grown-up Idealists

Moderated by:
John Halpin, Senior Fellow, Center for American Progress

Details: At a time when political discourse is seemingly consumed with trivial matters, authors Susan Neiman and Michael Boylan remind us of the moral and ethical questions that once informed our politics and how they can help move us forward today.

Please join the Center for American Progress for a moderated book discussion with the authors and an examination of how abstract philosophy intersects with practical policy making.

Copies of the books will be available for purchase at the event.
