セミナー主旨
In the curriculum at the Harvard Kennedy School, we assume we have a settled understanding of which skills and capacities practitioners need (and thus should be trained in) to act competently in public life.
However, in ethics, at least, such agreement cannot be presupposed. In this talk, Prof. Winston poses the core question as to what the moral competence of practitioners consist in and suggest two approaches for addressing it. One focuses on different roles that practitioners play in legal institutions. Here the theme is the interplay between institutional structures and moral virtues. The second approach identifies certain generic competences (virtues) that cut across different roles and thus serve as critical skills for all practitioners in public life, whatever their institutional setting.
