Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
This course is part of the entry phase of the MA in Philosophy program. The aim of this course is to introduce students to some core topics in practical philosophy, broadly construed. This course will focus on central topics in moral philosophy. Topics covered include, but are not limited to: moral rights, the moral standing of animals, blame and other reactive attitudes, moral responsibility, the nature of practical reason and reasons to act, as well as topics from the intersection of moral philosophy and epistemology. The course will primarily focus on contemporary readings from the tradition of analytic philosophy, with additional optional readings.
