This course will serve as an introduction to many of the most central questions of political philosophy. For instance, what is required for a state to be just and its citizens to be free? In exploring these questions, we will identify some theoretical tensions between justice, individual liberty, and equality. We will then bring this theoretical understanding into dialogue with some pressing political questions that arise in the contemporary US; for example, the legal regulation of pornography and the significance of racial discrimination in the criminal law. Texts will be drawn from a diverse array of philosophical traditions, including conservativism, feminism, liberalism, and Marxism.
