RELI 365 - Theories of Justice

3 Credit Hours
Prerequisite: EN 132 , PHIL 230  Corequisite: RPCM 391 This course examines different understandings/formulations/theories of justice in reference to real world problems. Doing justice emerges as a central way to provide leadership in society and to appreciate the ethics of such leadership. The course accomplishes this by addressing a specific moral/social/environmental issue selected by students. In reference to this issue, the course examines the ways in which understandings of justice are shaped by society while also being transformative of society. Moreover, the course addresses two interrelated questions relating to the issue selected by students: What should we do to resolve the issue/being about meaningful social change? Are our responses to it (and to those involved) just? This course must be taken concurrently with RPCM 391.
