PHIL 055. Philosophy of Law


In this course, we will examine some of the major theories of law: what exactly is law and why do we have to follow it? We then move to specific questions about criminal law, punishment, and civil disobedience. We conclude with a discussion of issues in international law and just war theory.
Prerequisite: First- and second-year students must complete one course in PHIL 001 -PHIL 010 , or PHIL 012 , before enrolling in this course.
1 credit.
