Course Content
This course will be devoted to a slow reading of one central book by Aristoteles, Kant and Hegel by evaluating their relevance for major problematics of contemporary political thought. In the course the realms of moral choice and ethnical judgement on the one hand, and political decision-making and the parameters of order-maintenance, on the other are analyzed. The course also focuses on various intellectual attempts of overcoming this split by heavy use of the works of these philosophers.
