PHL 238 Philosophies of Injustice


3 credits

Injustice and oppression are not mere sociological aberrations, but are driven by identifiable and rationally analyzable world views.  This course examines the historical and philosophical foundations of social injustice in terms of the epistemological, metaphysical and ethical assumptions that give rise to and sustain it in its various forms.  Students will examine the philosophical belief systems that inform sexism, heterosexism, racism, cissexism, colorism, ableism, nativism, colonialism, ageism, classism, and/or other oppressive ideologies.

Prerequisite(s): PHL 100  or PHL 151
