PHIL 37.02 Morality Critics

For most of its history morality has had vociferous critics. These critics argue that morality’s claims are illusory, ungrounded, or corrosive to human happiness. This course will examine some relatively recent examples of these arguments, including classic critiques from Marx, Nietzsche, and Freud, the “anti-theory” movement represented by Anscombe, Foot, and Williams, as well as recent work on evolution, error theory, the revision of normative concepts, and the possibility of ethics without ethical theory.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
