Social Ethics

Credits: 3.00Catalog #20809268

Investigates American conceptual frameworks used in understanding what makes for a "good society," with emphasis on the dominant individualistic tradition and its "multicultural" competitor. Drawing upon social scientific and philosophical constructs, discussions demonstrate how public issues manifest deeper cultural divisions over "social justice." The development of a theory of justice provides the basis for a normative or ethical understanding of society and its institutions.
