In his 2017 Robbins Lectures, Professor Jeffrey D. Sachs will argue for a new Moral Economics built firmly on the foundations of the new moral sciences. The goal of moral economics is to promote wellbeing. A core principle is the cultivation of individual and group virtue to help guide the behavior of both individuals and groups in the global society.
Lecture 3. Cultivating the Virtues of Globalization
Global society is at once deeply interconnected and deeply divided across political, religious, class, ethnic, and linguistic lines. These divides not only threaten prosperity but even human survival. The third lecture considers the virtues needed for globalization and the ways to cultivate them.

Thank you sir. I venerate you more than any religious figure in the present day. Your courage and dedication to the truth, is very praise worthy.

He is just a talking head leftist here in USA. Most things he said sound good but don't work in real life.

Prof Sachs is one of the best economists, and one the best speakers on social issues. It's a shame the BBC don't invite Prof Sachs anymore after he called out their disgusting bias and hypocrisy.

Unfortunately we can't see the displays. The camera should have followed the screen instead of Sachs, we can hear his voice.
