ONU’s Phi Beta Delta, CASE to present lecture on economics and inequality

Ohio Northern University’s Gamma Upsilon chapter of Phi Beta Delta and CASE (Committee on the Arts and Special Events) present Jonathon Andreas, economics professor at Bluffton University, in the Dicke Forum on Thursday, Feb. 21, at 7:30 p.m.

The title of Andreas’ lecture is “Mutilitarianism: How the Ethics of Economics Enriches Elites at your Expense.” The event is free and open to the public.

Andreas’ presentation will propose replacing the most common welfare measurements with a simple new ethical system that deals with inequality more justly and responds to longstanding criticisms of welfare economics by philosophers and measurement theorists.
