PHL 1120 HOW SHOULD WE LIVE?
This course invites you to think philosophically about the meaning of our working ethical values such as responsibility, respect and compassion, but also to develop a critical perspective on values: what life might be, should be and ought to be. What is worthwhile and really matters? How does anyone know for sure? We explore the scope and depth of values such as community, beauty, justice, equality and wealth, while testing those values with rational skepticism and shared experience. The goal is to ask better questions about how we live so that we can practice those values that will enable us to bring about what is most worthwhile in action, community and in life. Offered fall and spring.
