PHL 314 - The Philosophy of Violence

3 Credits

Violence is a dominant theme in media, and a major concern for educators and ethicists. 9-11, Waco, Oklahoma City, The Unabomber, road rage, workplace wrath, and global genocide reveal a pandemic of violence. This course provides a survey of recent developments in the study of violence, roots, theoretical concepts of violence, and humane ways of dealing with violence.
