From The Vault: The Encouraging Spread of Academic Programs in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics

<p>Join Senior Scholar and Professor of Political Economy, Richard Salsman, Ph.D., in fresh episodes of <em>Morals &amp; Markets&nbsp;</em>"From the Vault."&nbsp;These episodes were from early episodes of <em>Morals &amp; Markets </em>from before it became a podcast.&nbsp;</p> <p>Tune in to this episode in which Dr. Salsman discusses PPE Programs at Universities:</p> <p>"Until recently, the social sciences in academic - philosophy, politics, and economics - have existed in narrowly-specialized silos, detached from each other (and from reality). Thankfully, in recent decades an interdisciplinary approach has evolved, in the form of "PPE" programs, with studies that conform far better to the real world. The best and brightest students are drawn tothis integrated, non-paritsan approach and profit by it. In this webinar, Dr. Salsman, who teaches in Duke's PPE&nbsp;program, discusses the origins, content, spread, and future of these programs."</p>
