Capstone: The Ethical Application of Fiduciary Relationships in Government
Capstone Advisor: David Estlund
A concentration in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics synthesizes the knowledge of moral principles and logic; an understanding of liberalism, libertarianism, and socialism; as well as the study of market structures to provide a holistic perspective. This holistic perspective analyzes the relationships between individuals and institutions, primarily in the federal government of the United States.
My capstone essay uses modern thinking on fiduciary relationships from the discipline of business ethics to investigate Locke's position that the federal government would be best structured as a fiduciary. The paper aims to address how a government would look if structured as a fiduciary, and what the implication of this structure would be.
