Today's Goals: 
Understand the basic principles of Libertarianism


Starter:
Review the
powerpoint slides on the definitions of Welfare, Liberty and Equality/Fairness through the slides on Libertarianism.

To help you retain this information, write a reaction to the ideas we've studied so far in moral philosophy-- some things to consider for your reaction:

  • Which philosophy or "approaches" do you find yourself agreeing with the most? Why?
  • Pick a moral dilemma or current political issue and solve it from the perspective of a Utilitarian (either Bentham or J.S. Mills) and a Libertarian.
  • What questions do you still have about the content we've covered so far?

Agenda
  • Whole class Q and A about content covered thus far
  • Study group guided questions on Ch. 3: Libertarianism 
  • Starter Check!
  • Time to go over questions on chapter 3 as a whole class
  • Ashley's powerpoint overview on John Rawls' philosophy of "Justice as Fairness" (John Rawls' primary focus here in on equality)
  • Time to read Ch. 6 on Rawls' philosophy
  • Last 5-10 minutes: A word from Zoe about LINK
