What is the relationship between economic and humanist perspectives on issues of individual choice and social exchange, or what economists might call trade? In a one-man show, USC College’s Mark Moore (Economics) brings together the “economic theory of the individual,” in which “we all face constraints — resources, wealth, time — and so must make choices, which in turn reflect our values,” and “the traditions of humanist, ethical, and artistic thought,” which have traditionally scorned economics. What is it that, in the face of our own mortality, the ultimate economic and moral constraint, makes human life meaningful — and what do these two disparate traditions have to teach us? Through his one-man show, Moore asks us all to face this question.
