VCS656: Art and Ethical Issues / College of Creative Arts

Ethics considers a variety of moral and social problems from the perspectives of prominent philosophers and modern ethicists. It will focus on five different, but contiguous, points: on the self in relation to others on culture, including popular culture, fashion, and art in its various forms; on its own unique literary, historical, artistic, social, environmental, and political position considering issues of freedom, spirituality, human dignity, and personal responsibility within a global context; and on the world of art, science and technology.
