Ethics and UK Public Policy

This seminar examines the ethical dimensions of public policy in the United Kingdom. Students will engage with analytic political philosophy by contemporary scholars writing in the UK about what makes a society just, what values public policy ought to serve, and how policy implementation can advance or thwart those values. The seminar will focus on three policy areas—education, immigration, and climate change—and as such will consider UK approaches to domestic, international, and global policy. Students will explore a range of perspectives with an aim toward developing their facility with analyzing and constructing normative arguments.
