EQUALITY AND IDENTITY
This course will be focused on the political ideal of equality. We will pay special attention to
- The relation between ideas of equality, priority and sufficiency, or needs;
- The notion of equality of opportunity;
- The relation between equality, responsibility and luck; and
- Discrimination of given social groups or identities
As taught this semester, Phil 116 satisfies the ethics requirement for the philosophy major.
