This course is devoted to applying a range of competing moral theories to contemporary moral problems like euthanasia and physician-assisted suicide, world famine, the moral basis for and limits to war (just-war theory), the nature and wrongness of racism and sexism, the proper aims of genetic enhancement and cloning, immigration policy, the moral status of nonhuman animals, and abortion. We will cover between eight and ten different topics, reading articles on these topics by some of the world’s leading contemporary philosophers.
