Learning objectives

Political Philosophy
The course aims to provide examples of the contribution that philosophy can bring to a critical understanding of political and social issues, particularly referring to democracy and citizenship, and to public communication about them.
At the end of the course students should be able to demonstrate: to have acquired a precise knowledge of the topics addressed in the course (authors, theories, concepts) and an appropriate historical and hermeneutic approach to philosophical texts; to be able to expose specific topics in an orderly and synthetic way, and with the appropriate language skills; to have developed the ability to formulate his/her own judgment. They will also acquire the capability to communicate philosophical contents to specialists and non-specialists alike, and to continue their studies at a MA level.

Prerequisites and basic notions

The course does not require specific prerequisites.

Program

"Political life and social life.
Thinking about the present between past and future"
What are we talking about when we talk about politics and society? How did political philosophy investigate such issues and how can we elaborate them, facing the greatest crises of our time, starting from the ecological emergency?
The course introduces the reading of ancient, modern and contemporary classics such as Aristotle, John Locke, Karl Marx and Hannah Arendt, who offer valuable tools for thinking about the present "between past and future".
