I just finished his Justice course online. I feel so good!

What a legend. His free lecture series on justice is absolutely phenomenal!

I love the way he teaches, asking questions and getting the audience to participate and examining the different responses. It's such a good way to learn rather than only lecture.

Suddenly felt like I am watching his "justice" in the giant Harvard hall when he was giving the lecture

I love this guy.... he never ceases to amaze me!

I would love if there was a discussion group like he was talking about. I have longed been saddened by the lack of real discussion in our society.

Once a lecturer, always a lecturer. It was amazing to see how he managed to keep the audience rapt with attention. And more heart-warmingly, these past 20 minutes looked like a college reunion in all its nostalgia - the many adults sitting together once more for another lecture again. As if they simply were the undergraduates most undoubtly had once been.

Being a student from India , a country with reservation system. My immediate answer to the flute question was " Give it to a bad flutist " - because the good flutist has been given the flute and has mastered it. It is time to give more oppertunity to bad still enthusiastic flutists. Back in India that is what we call social justice.

It's awesome to hear the classical form of argumentation, and to see the incredible longevity of these philosophical traditions.

Would love witnessing Mr. Sandel here in India. You can sure make students back here explore with you the subjects of justice and morality.

Beautifully done. The way he brings you through that was so logical and shows he's an excellent educator. Well done, sir!

the way you build and present an argument Professor Sandel is incredible! It's inspiring! Thank you for your work sir!

I'm watching the Harvard University Justice course online. The problems raised there, the opinions of the attendees and the solutions excellently explained by Michael Sandel given by the great philosophers throughout history provide an invaluable starting point to maturely face the political and social problems of contemporary society and although No easy solutions can be found, the mere fact of understanding the problem in depth brings us some peace of mind, renews our energy, stimulates our imagination and the most surprising thing: boring is overcome and life becomes very fun and interesting.

His class is the most interesting, most helpful, most fun class I have ever had since I came to this world.

"Decision-making on major issues is now vested in international institutions which are so remote from public influence, that the public has no idea what's going on." Robert Barsky

Mr Michael Sandel, one of the greatest minds of the modern world!

Boy, he was giving this lecture in 2010. I wonder if he has totally lost faith in the human race after 2016.

Sandel's lectures open up eyes to re-examine the established order and belief of the days.

And I am very glad that there are people who share his knowledge in such a nice way as Michael Sandel.

MS: “Warren, are u a golfer?” W: “I’m not a golfer.” C: “And i am.” Cool lady 😆

BRILLIANT!!

Unfortunately, before any democratic debates could possibly be happening, any remarks that go against the pre-established political agenda is out of the question. The more I put myself on the path to learn more about justice and reasoning, the more helpless I sometimes feel. Optimism of the will, I suppose. That's why listening to this man is almost a source of consolation to me. Thank you, Mr. Sandel!

Simply The Best! Always trilled by his provocations and debates! Never stop!

This man is great

how can 34 people dislike this? Sandel is one of the best academics of our day.

That was one heck of a passionate talk by Professor Sandel. Enjoyed it thoroughly.

I love and enjoy his conferences...

great man, great thought, wow

Eu amo esse cara, ele nunca cessa de me surpreender

This is one of the most interesting videos I have listened to in a long time. Excellent :))

I can't see why people would dislike this video, I applaud Michael Sandal in all I've seen of him in his 'justice: what's the right thing to do' and not because I always agree with him but because he presents it well and allows the audience to think for themselves when asking questions for votes of what they think and with each question is brought new light on the subject. Awesome Job at yet another great presentation. And I totally go for the idea of doing such presentations worldwide!!

I love how he interacts with the audience :)

Great lecturer ☘️ I enjoyed every second of your videos .

Always ready for your lecture.. professor. :)

This needs more views, this guy is incredible!

Very interesting and engaging. He deserves praise.

A huge obstacle for democratic debate I see in this day & age , it’s the so called “political correctness”

Very good talk, kudos to him

HIGHLY INFORMATIVE

Brilliant lecturer. Brilliant academic. I would give my right arm to attend a lecture by this man💯🫶🏻😄

what a great speaker.

Phenomenological foundation for ethics!! Heck yes!

Superb!

Who came here after the presidential "debate"? 😂

Sir, I am your biggest fan.. and your though for a "global classroom"..!! incredible ☺👍would love to be a part of such larger ambition..

Instead it seems The lost art of democratic lecture . Loved it oll the way from Harverd to TeD

he spoke of great wisdom , and makes me think twice on my strategy of arguing . (intro to philosophy 101)

I was making the same comment to my philosophy professor a few days ago on the lost art of democratic debate . He agreed

So good

Aw crud, for the first time I agree with Scalia. Also, though I agree that deeper political debate is vital, I must decry under the strongest possible terms the retreat to Aristotalean essentialism. What is important is not some mythical "essential character" of something as clearly man-made and mutable as a sport, but the benefit or drawbacks of each decision. Really interested to hear what Michael Sandel would have to say about Karl Popper...

He is brilliant!

The golfer question was a serendipity at it's best.

He’s a great thinker indeed

I had to watch again right after the first because I wanted to hear him talk over and over again about democratic discourse. What a brilliant idea from an equally brilliant educator.

incredible.

you can watch his classes on-line:)

It's awesome 😊

i watch this guy for relaxation he has a very calm voice

I love how Sandel always gets the audience involved. His Harvard lectures are great.

A great man I ever seen I have just finished the justice course the right thing to do and it was an honor to take it

l love this man and the way he lecture.

16:27 “There is a tendency to think that if we engage too directly with moral questions in politics, that’s a recipe for disagreement, and for that matter, a recipe for intolerance and coercion. So better to shy away from, to ignore, the moral and religious convictions that people bring to civic life. It seems to me that our discussion reflects the opposite, that a better way to mutual respect is to engage directly with the moral convictions citizens bring to public life, rather than to require that people leave their deepest moral convictions outside politics before they enter. That, it seems to me, is a way to begin to restore the art of democratic argument.”

Here after His Justice lectures

Love this guy

how can I enjoy the global discussions by video meeting?

zatiaľ je skoro december ale počasie 🔥 je teplé

Thank youtube Recommend🎉

Bringing in moral consequence or background of something under debate leads to harmonising the views because we become capable of knowing that why the debate exist at first place and often differing views are result of ignorance about different view points. It saves policy makers from wasting time on immaterial questions.

I just watch him on TED stage , 11-year video. He really interacted and eyed-contact technique

his wish about global classroom actually came true with edX.

@KingofNH I a gree. My only regret watching those is that I couldn't partake in any of the debates myself.

I think it can be pretty obvious who better flute players are. Music tests are an option. Ability to play certain things and also the ability to play certain things and in certain manners regarding how the original composer of the piece intended it to be heard.

All politicians should be required to a Michael Sandel class.

Nice

@throwsparx That is pretty much the opposite of what a debate is about. Debate is about bringing up the pros AND the cons. Through use of logic and reason, weighing these positives and negatives lead the observer of said debate figuring out which side (if any) is the logical position to hold.

Nice video

Aristotle and the flute example was a great example of justice. Aristotle said that flute distribution should go to the best players because they will do the flutes justice and create good music. The more modern example with the golf cart. I would like to comment on what seems fair or unfair in this situation. Tiger Woods, recently quit a gold tournament because he couldn’t tolerate the pain in his injured leg for 18 holes. He said, “I will wait until I am the right age to use the golf cart.” He is arguably one of the greatest golf players to ever play, and he chose to back out of a tournament to follow traditional rules. I believe that the example you gave is very similar to Tiger Woods recent controversy. One ides that comes up, is that there are many people who came to watch Tiger play, he let many fans down. There were many fans who spent money, traveled to see his greatness, and then he backs out. I am sure even those traditional rules should be amended in special circumstances. How about walking half the distance? Does playing with an injured foot anyways give advantage to the other players? I am sure that other players would want to play against Tiger at his best and beat him at his best, not lose to Tiger with one foot. Tiger could have walked 9 holes and used the cart for the other nine. Maybe it is time to start thinking about situations where it is just, because if not, then another tournament should be created for disabled golfers. I am not an expert, but I would be willing to bet that Tiger would be number one in that tournament. Taking the provided example to the Supreme Court was intriguing. Let everyone access to the golf cart is a good idea, however the endurance portion of the game I am sure can impact the game.

i love this guy

Good

2:16 man in Pink tshirt yawning 🥱 sitting there!! Michael doesn’t deserve that!!!!

Please do so as China desperately needs this kind of talk.

Justice Scalia's argument is fallacious for a third and more important reason: golf on the PGA tour is a "productive activity". PGA players don't have other jobs, this is their source of income, and they devote many hours per day to it. In a situation where a man's applying for a job is at stake, to say that the essential nature of that job cannot be considered as the job has no actual purpose is ridiculous. The purpose is to win, and in so doing to gain money.

Just a great moment at 8:35 onwards hahaha

@Hania454 he probably put a lot of thought into that lecture and into the examples. He was speaking to a new crowd, so mine as well start with his biggest and best punch.

We don't have political debates. We have people taking turns spouting talking points.

I am impossibly glad that Dan Brown brought me to this video

Was ein Glück, dass wir heute KZfaq haben. Ich finde es echt mega, solche Videos jederzeit kostenlos anschauen zu dürfen. Ein Hoch auf die Moderne!

Well is it not just obvious that any person that thinks normally would come to the conclusion that the best flute should be distributed to the best flute player or players. But the world does not function on this wavelengh, there are many other factors at play.It would have been more interesting to state that all aspiring players who show true potential and are persistent should be given the best flutes in the sense that the quality of the flute should not be a factor in ruining the performance of an aspiring candidate, now that would be true justice.

I think another obstacle to democratic debate in the modern age is the whole political party system. Politicians find themselves obligated to blindly and emphatically side with their fellow party members on virtually every issue. Thus, they become gridlocked, or even worse, fail to consider viable third-options (such as giving everyone a golf cart, or leaving the government out of marriages altogether).

Question at 15:00 just got some boys cancelled lol

my point is, if there are 100 people in the audience and there are 100 flutes for distribution, then it is not really an issue who gets what quality of flutes as long as everyone gets the same in a orderly manner!

i just got interested with any debate stuffs, and now im here in 2021 watching the 10 years ago video

Imagine if college lectures were more like this talk, instead of monotonous one-way communication or video watching.

@freesk8 i agree with your points... however the truth is that for many spectrum like say the pga they are able because of wealth resources and size to form governing influences that then create standards which other facilitators of the common activity fell overwhelming pressures comply say for instance contracts with course maintenance suppliers which in effect would make it impossible for other facilitators to compete run it primary function. in this case govt has a duty to intervene..

Hes right, people always only looks at the negative side of everything instead of looking at the pro's of the argument and what said debate is really about.

This is kinda repetition after watching the "Justice with Michael Sandel"... Yet understandable, still a great argumenting with clarity.

'Golfers are very sensitive about the athletic status of their game'.. I agree with you though, pro golf is something else, but it still works in the case of his overall argument.

donde puedo conseguir este vídeo traducido al español.

I would love to watch a game of football with this guy.

Mr. Michael Sandel please run for president 👏👏👏
