Description
The Program in Ethics, Politics and Economics sponsors two lecture series each year. The Castle Lectures were endowed by Mr. John K. Castle. They honor his ancestor the Reverend James Pierpont, one of Yale’s original founders. Given by established public figures, Castle Lectures are intended to promote reflection on the moral foundations of society and government and to enhance understanding of ethical issues facing individuals in our complex modern society. The Robert Litowitz Trust endowment supports an annual Robert Litowitz Lecture in Ethics and Public Policy. The Litowitz lecturer is a major intellectual figure who examines the role of religious perspectives on major issues of ethics and public policy.

Customer Reviews
Wrong order
Very good lecture series, but please rearrange the lectures so that they are in order. When you go through the episodes of any podcast, you assume that you can go in order from the oldest to newest. I listened to Machiavelli’s Mistake all the way through completely confused before I realized that this lecture triplet was ordered with the first lecture as the newest lecture. The Altruism series is all shuffled up: 2, 1, 3. At least include lecture 1, lecture 2, lecture 3 in the titles so we don’t have to read the entire the description before realizing that this is a lecture series in triplet so that we have to make sure we find the right order
