PL 2044: Social Philosophy
3.00 Credits
Polytechnic Institute of New York University
The social sciences deal specifically with human subjects and institutions rather than the natural world and phenomenon. As opposed to the natural sciences, which are explanatory, the social sciences are interpretive. This interpretive turn raises a number of questions: What exactly is an interpretation? What makes an interpretation correct or better than another interpretation? Are interpretations universal or relative to culture? The class examines the relationship between individuals and societies in order to form a better understanding of who we are, how we should live together, how we investigate societies and social phenomena, what constitutes a personal identity, what constitutes a political identity, what is race, what is gender? Prerequisite: none.

The class examines the relationship between biotechnology and ethics and politics, questioning the limits of what are its just and appropriate uses. Prerequisite: none.
