On Good Behavior: Winning and Losing

Are there ethical ways to win and lose?  Do adults engaged in high stake contests maintain the “good sport” habits we’re taught growing up?  How do victorious and defeated candidates and political partisans respond to the results of elections? Though the sports analogies dominating our national culture are about competition, we must continue to grow ever more civically engaged and cooperative if we are to create an ethical culture.

Additional opportunities to discuss this topic are Dec. 7 at 11:00AM and Dec. 20 at 5:30PM. Email HughTM@gmail.com for those Zoom links.
