DESCRIPTION
In this course, you will gain an overview of the main developments in social philosophy and you will read key texts from its history, with a special focus upon 20th century philosophy. In introductions (the first seminar every week) the larger timeline of the history of social philosophy will be presented; in subsequent text-reading seminars, original texts of philosophers will be discussed in detail. Reading the original sources will give you a better understanding of the specifics of the philosophers' thinking.
