Justice

These are the first two videos of a lecture series given by Michael Sandel at Harvard.

The series can be found here.

I am no expert in philosophy but these lectures seem to me to be a great introduction to some philosophical issues. Sandel's teaching technique is also interesting bring to life what might otherwise be dry academic philosophy by using carefully chosen moral dilemmas.
