Course Description
Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2023-2024.
Morality changes constantly. What is wrong in one situation is right in another. Children acquire new moral principles as they grow older. And over human history, societies have transformed their views on how to treat its members. How is moral change possible? And what is its direction—if it has one? In this seminar, we will engage with diverse perspectives on moral change. Readings will come from developmental, cognitive, and social psychological research on morality, as well as philosophy, history, and other related fields. Students will participate in weekly discussions, give a class presentation, and submit a final paper.
