About

Book List: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rqjpwv7Xn5WSZJJXzjFNq7QN-h-IvwwlyNrBZG9Z2SM/edit?usp=sharing Office Hours: https://schoolhouse.world/series/1639?celebrate The aim of this series is to analyze Capitalist and Socialist Theory from an objective point of view. We will read Adam Smith and Karl Marx, among many, many more. We will read their critics, discuss the ideas we read in our sessions, and (optionally) write essays analyzing, comparing, and contrasting their ideas. This series is the third part--on Socialism. How we structure each session will be based on this guide: http://www.greatbooks.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Shared-Inquiry-Handbook.pdf Sessions will be added continually.

A little about me: I'm about the biggest Indie fan there is, I almost exclusively watch (John Hughes>>) 80s movies or the upcoming Star Wars series, and I read sci-fi in my spare time. I tutor for the sake of those aha moments, and have taken Multivariable Calc, Linear Algebra, Real Analysis, and Complex Analysis. Who knows what I'll tutor next, hope to see you soon.
