| Course Description: | From politics to taste, disagreements are everywhere. We examine the epistemic, moral, and political significance of disagreement: when,if ever, should disagreement force us to revise our own views? Does the existence of moral disagreement have implications for moral objectivity? And how can we coexist with others who disagree with our most basic values? We will also discuss the differences among disagreements in science, aesthetics, and ethics. We鈥檒l also ask whether the persistence of philosophical disagreement should make us pessimistic about the possibility of philosophical knowledge. |
