human flourishing, prejudice, value creation, phenomenologyAbstract
Chasing the good life has preoccupied thinkers for centuries but solutions such as happiness, peace, security, and the elimination of conflict and prejudice, have continued to elude even the most advanced societies. This paper explores the potential for a phenomenological application of value science as a vehicle for de-biasing prejudice and developing human potential. The framework suggested here facilitates internal development for individuals, groups, and organizations but could potentially be adapted to address bias and prejudice at the societal level.References
