Location: 

Emerson Hall 210, Harvard Yard

In this lecture, Ruth E. Chang, Professor of Philosophy at Rutgers University, asks: What makes a choice hard? Examining four common explanations and finding them wanting, she proposes a fifth. Her proposed explanation underwrites a novel view of rational agency relevant not only to individual but also to collective rational choice.
