This course surveys classic debates on ethics - such as utilitarianism and deontological ethics - to provide students with analytical tools to answer the deceptively simple question "What is the right thing to do?" The course draws on classical readings of political philosophy, while seeking to make those abstract problems tangible by applying them to real world cases and examples.
