ENT 422 Ecology of the Human Spirit
Entrepreneurship seeks to supply and support the conditions of human flourishing, and so an understanding of these conditions is essential to any entrepreneur's success. This course will develop a broader view of what it means to live well by investigating what may be called the "ecology of the human spirit." This interdisciplinary study will explore themes such as work, economy, civil society, family, and faith. The course will consist of lectures, student presentations, and student-led discussions, and will draw largely on the thought of Catholic public intellectual Michael Novak. Assessment will be based on student presentations, class discussion, and a take-home final exam.
