Course Description
Summary
Year 2020. The Republic, a fledgling, young country, has left decades of relative prosperity and entered an era marked by poor governance, a world-shaking pandemic, the open persecution of oppressed minority groups, and a ruling class determined to maintain its wealth and power. The first half of this course will deconstruct the foundational social, economic, and governance systems in this fictional world which determine equity and success. The second half of the course will leverage collaborative worldbuilding design principles to begin codifying radical new foundational principles that make social and economic justice easier for all citizens in The Republic to access.
Course dates: Sept 14, 21, 28; Oct 5, 12, 19, 26; Nov 2, 9, 16
