Emphases differ from year to year.
In this course, we will examine a cluster of moral problems which concern the values of autonomy, integrity, and self-respect. We will critically examine such arguments, and the conceptions of autonomy, integrity, and self-respect which underlie them. We will also consider some more general questions about the value of autonomy and its role in a good or flourishing human life. There will be several short papers and a final exam. Suitable for non-majors.
