Description
This course examines theories of Philosophical ethics. Possible topics include metaethics (which asks questions such as "What do we mean when we call things 'right' or 'wrong'?", "Are there universal ethical truths or is morality fundamentally relative?", and "What is the relationship between morality and religion?"), normative ethics (which asks whether the right thing to do is determined by considerations such as rights, duties, intentions, consequences, character, or something else) and applied ethics (which applies normative ethical theories to particular concrete problems).
