グローバル教養科目（History of Social-Political Philosophy）
This course will be centered around the history of social-political philosophy, starting with Greek thought and ending in the contemporary era. Students will read important works of social, political, and religious thought, with a focus on well-being for societies. We will ask questions like: Where does society come from? How do we balance individual liberty and the public good? What behaviors and practices perpetuate injustice? Can we create a better society? How do power and privilege define our capacity to make change? How do we find truth? Can facts be detached from cultural contexts?
•The seminar experience: Students will develop critical approaches to reading a set of shared texts, while communicating their ideas, asking questions, and actively listening to peers in a free and honest exchange of multiple viewpoints.
•Communication and critical thinking: Students will sharpen analysis and argumentation skills through a variety of expressive modes.
•Ethical reasoning: Students will evaluate the historical, social, and cultural bases of prevailing beliefs.
•Diversity & Universality: Students will investigate fundamental questions of human experience from a variety of perspectives.
•Connecting texts to the world: Students will make connections between historical texts about human existence and current moral, social, and political issues.
