Staying With The Question
Order
Order is all around us, like air. Before we are even aware of our surroundings, we have entered a humanly-ordered world. Order can be used to punish creativity and keep people in their place. But it is also order that guarantees the rule of law, a fair shot, and democratic governance. Host Kim Marshall talks to OU scholars Sherri Irvin, Jermaine Thibodaux, Katie Schumaker,and Wanda Katja Liebermann about the ways that order helps us make sense of the world around us. Throughout time and across the globe, how have we have made humanly-ordered worlds meaningful?
