Description
How should we organize society?
Give your student a chance to figure it out. Can they achieve equality, govern themselves by consensus and create a fair way to distribute the wealth and the work?
This project provides three open-ended scenarios for students to work on these important issues.
There’s also a lesson on the economics of equal sharing based on a wonderful book by Stanford University Economics Professor Ran Abramitsky called The Mystery of the Kibbutz – Egalitarian Principles in a Capitalist World
