THE LECTURE | THE COMPASS OF CHARACTER

We trust the law to mould responsible leaders and citizens. Does it?

We think our schools and universities prepare us for life. Do they?

We look to the market to satisfy us. Can it?

Professor Nicholas Aroney examines what we put our faith in to create a good society. He shows how we’ve lost our way and how we can rediscover it.
