PH 234 - Justice Through the Ages

4.00 credits
This seminar addresses the subject of justice as it has appeared in classical literature. Many of the readings involve the contest between positive law, enacted by the state, and what has been labeled natural or eternal law. The course begins with readings from the ancient world and concludes with modern-day readings on the subject. It also includes films that eloquently address the perennial problems associated with defining justice.
