Private Government: How Employers Rule Our Lives (and Why We Don’t Talk About It) is a record of the two Tanner Lectures delivered in March 2015 at Princeton University by Elizabeth Anderson, Professor of Finance and Women’s Studies at the University of Michigan (https://tannerlectures.utah.edu/Anderson%20manuscript.pdf; https://press.princeton.edu/titles/ 10938.html). The Tanner Lectures began in 1978 at Clare Hall, a college of the University of Cambridge. Their founder, O. C. Tanner, said his purpose for them was “a search for better understanding and human values.” Wikipedia rates them as “one of the top lecture series among top universities,” and, indeed, the list of past Tanner lecturers includes Popper, Nagel, Rawls, Sen, and Foucault. |
