Re-Ima­gin­ing Cap­it­al­ism. To­wards Just and Sus­tain­able Fu­tures

The course is aligned with and responds to CBS strategy around the "Nordic Nine", to build capabilities for a positive and sustainable future. In this sense, the course "Reimagining Capitalism" aims at analysing today's societal challenges and helping the students to build a set of analytical and critical tools to solve them. Moreover, the course focuses on the ethical dilemmas that the students will most likely encounter in their professional life and aims at helping them to identify sustainable and responsible ways to overcome them. Furthermore, the way the course is designed – with some key texts and ideas presented and discussed in class and the final exam being a critical essay on a topic of the student choosing – is in line with the idea that students must be critical when thinking and constructive when collaborating. Finally, the central idea of the course – that we must reimagine the ways in which our societies and economies work, if we are to tackle today's challenges – implies a sense of responsibility for the future generations and the idea that local communities, when interconnected in global networks, can become catalysers of positive change
