In contemporary times, people find themselves confronted with a unique set of dilemmas: moral and political relativism, ethical dilemmas, gender issues, consumerism, economic inequalities, the rising distrust of intellectualism and the dissolution of the American Dream. In this course, we investigate how the philosophical tradition has evaluated such developments and how philosophical thinking of the past can be a valuable tool in the quest to live an autonomous and meaningful life amidst these apparently dehumanizing trends.
