Listen Later

Contributor(s): Professor Paul Anand, Catherine Audard, Professor Jonathan Wolff | What is progress and how do we measure it? What account of wellbeing could accommodate a concern for self-realization and self-development?

Paul Anand, Catherine Audard and Jonathan Wolff will combine insights from welfare economics and moral philosophy to offer new perspectives on the ideas of progress and human development.

Catherine Audard is the Chair of the Forum for European Philosophy and Visiting Fellow in the Department of Philosophy, Logic and Scientific Method at LSE. Jonathan Wolff is Professor of Philosophy at University College London.
