Fight Conformity & Claim Moral Autonomy through Philosophy

Moral judgments shape our daily lives and deeply influence who we are. Often, these judgments are absorbed unconsciously from our social environment. This course invites you to examine the hidden assumptions, implications, and reasoning behind your moral compass.

By the end, you'll be equipped to:

• Navigate justice discussions with greater skill.
• Make autonomous decisions with confidence.
• Engage in confident and insightful conversations about ethics.
• Develop a deeper understanding of diverse moral viewpoints.

We'll explore prominent moral perspectives – both academically significant and reflective of common, often unexamined, beliefs. Each philosophical approach receives in-depth treatment:

• A chapter dedicated to a clear exegesis of the theory.
• A second chapter presenting arguments both for and against the perspective.

Enhance your learning with short video presentations summarizing key concepts in each section. We encourage you to take advantage of Skype office hours to ask questions and participate in further discussions.

No prior knowledge of philosophy or ethical reasoning is necessary. This course is designed for anyone interested in exploring the foundations of morality and its impact on our lives.
