Political and Moral Philosophy (Introductory Seminar)
Political and Moral Philosophy
This research seminar deals with basic issues discussed in political and moral philosophy. In general, this branch of philosophy is interested in normative topics, not so much on what “is”, but rather on what “ought to be”. For example, since the times of Ancient Greece, political philosophy has been defined as the quest for the best regime. It addresses the question of what the ideal political regime ought to be. This seminar focuses on political and moral themes from philosophical perspectives.
