Thee or Me Part 1: Morality & the Prisoner's Dilemma - Roundtable

This Roundtable discusses the "Thee or Me?" podcast - subtitled ‘Morality & The Prisoner's Dilemma’. Issues discussed include: that genetics can play a part in personal morality and different moralities are reflected in the egocentric bias common to us all; a discussion of behavioural economics and the way culture and public forces can nudge or 'crowd in' or 'crowd out' individual virtue; how wisdom may include the development of character to overcome the shortcomings of our nature; and the extent to which we can escape or transcend our genes. Again, the development of character was discussed in this context.
