Speaking at the official opening of the Rotman Institute of Philosophy, Dr. Philip Kitcher gave this lecture entitled "Alienation and its Dangers". This was the second of two lectures, under the collective title, "Science in a Democratic Society", engaged with Kitcher’s ideas about the two forces of democracy and science, and how they interact with each other.
This lecture took place at The University of Western Ontario on Oct. 22, 2010. It was part of the 2010/2011 Rotman Institute of Philosophy Speakers Series.
