This course explores potential approaches to reconciling the benefits of free market capitalism with the values and expectations of a democratic society. This seminar raises important questions and highlights issues that are relevant to a number of potential law graduate career paths including that of in-house counsel, external counsel, senior management team member, corporate board member, and policymaker &amp; staff. To that end, students taking the course will develop an understanding of:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The evolution of views on the purpose of business in society (assumptions and realities of corporate governance)<\/li>\n<li>The current problems putting pressure on democratic capitalism (externalities, regulation or lack thereof)<\/li>\n<li>Emerging theories to address the inherent tensions in the system (new structures, governance priorities, industry self-regulation)<\/li>\n<li>Possible roles one can play in addressing the shortcomings of democratic capitalism<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Denny Center offers a wide variety of ways for students to get involved, from drop-in lectures and panel discussions to more formal seminar classes, as well as grants, fellowships, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":14,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"0","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"footnotes":"","_tec_slr_enabled":"","_tec_slr_layout":""},"class_list":["post-851","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"ticketed":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.law.georgetown.edu\/denny-center\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/851","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.law.georgetown.edu\/denny-center\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.law.georgetown.edu\/denny-center\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.law.georgetown.edu\/denny-center\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.law.georgetown.edu\/denny-center\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=851"}],"version-history":[{"count":21,"href":"https:\/\/www.law.georgetown.edu\/denny-center\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/851\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1024,"href":"https:\/\/www.law.georgetown.edu\/denny-center\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/851\/revisions\/1024"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.law.georgetown.edu\/denny-center\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=851"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
