The teaching is organized as follows:
Learning objectives
The course aims to transmit to students conceptual tools and reflection styles related to the ethical themes of the contemporary world, focusing on the questions revolving around the field of care. This reference is grounded in the evidence of the strict bounds existing between philosophy and care, both of the self and of others. In addition to provide students with the knowledge of philosophical reflection on ethics, the course aims to develop in them the ability to actualise the theories that will be discussed in classes.
Knowledge and skills acquired during the course concur to establish an appropriate conceptual frame for in-depth interdisciplinary analysis. Moreover, the course aims to develop the capacity of critically reflecting on the present, always within the range of the course’s themes. Both course modules will provide skills apt to shape and increase critical assessment capacity in uncertain contexts, providing in-depth knowledge of the ethical implications of theoretical and practical judgements, all expressed with adequate linguistic competence in this field. Such competences should enable students to communicate, share, and disseminate informations, ideas, problems and solutions related to the field of care, both with specialists and non-specialists alike, with the aim of establishing relations of responsibility and care. In addition, in view of writing their future dissertations, students will also be encouraged to set up independent research paths.
