PPE

Philosophy, Politics and Economics: three branches that have spent two centuries arguing about which one gets the last word on questions of how to live together. Each branch is interesting on its own. The pay-off of doing all three is seeing where the arguments cross over.

The catalogue is split into Foundations and Topics. Foundations install the working vocabulary of each branch. Topics let you go deep on what interests you. New readers should start with Getting started for a recommended path.

Branches

  • Philosophy. Knowledge, reality, value, the structure of thought.
  • Politics. Institutions, ideas, and the comparative study of how societies organise power.
  • Economics. How individuals, firms, and economies make and respond to decisions under scarcity.

The catalogue is a content map: assessment and institution-specific administration have been stripped out; what remains are the ideas, debates, and primary readings.
