Short course description and program
The
course focuses on questions concerning global justice. The first part
of the course addresses basic notions and concepts connected to
distributive justice as well as major conceptions of justice developed
for the domestic level.
The second part of the course offers clues for appreciating
the peculiarity of the global domain and the specific challenges
connected
to extending requirements of justice beyond domestic contexts. On this
background, the third part of the course is meant to provide insights
about issues - such as poverty, migration, climate change and public
health - that are likely to have global import and that might require
cooperation at the international level. In the final part of the course,
students will be actively involved in debate sessions, which will
provide them the opportunity to apply theoretical frames and
philosophical arguments to issues currently discussed within public
debates.
The
complete program of the course, with details about the methods of
assessment and indications about the exam materials, is available here.
