Ethics and Social Policy, 3 hours. This course is about justice. The course will critically examine the norms and values that govern the web of relations that exist between the individual person and societal structures and powers. The course will compare and contrast conservative and liberal understandings of the relation between individual and society, citizen and government. We will begin with a careful look at the general social, ethical, and legal systems presented in two classics of Western Civilization. We will then shift from theoretical issues to applied ones�looking at the ethical, social, and legal issues involved in three contemporary social controversies�abortion, lesbian and gay rights, and affirmative action. First Year Discovery Program Course. Registration restricted to freshmen. Students should enroll in only one Discovery course.
