Harvard Kennedy School
Belfer Center, Room 1

Jonathan Wolff will be discussing the valuation of life and health in government policies.  Free and open to the public.  Stop by if you’re in Cambridge!

(And don’t forget about Michael Sandel’s talk, “What Money Can’t Buy: The Moral Limits of Markets” – which is unfortunately at a conflicting time at the law school. Take your pick!)

The Petrie-Flom Center will be co-sponsoring this lecture by Michael Sandel, the Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Professor of Government at Harvard University, on his recent book What Money Can’t Buy: The Moral Limits of Markets published earlier this year. A question and answer period with Prof. Sandel and a small reception will immediately follow his lecture.
