Prerequisites None Corequisite None Recommended Preparation None 3. Catalog Description Philosophy and Popular Culture is designed to render relevant the insights, theories and conclusions of philosophers through the ages to the 21st Century American thinker. In contemporary times, people find themselves confronted with a unique set of dilemmas: Moral and political relativism, ethical dilemmas, gender issues, consumerism, economic inequalities, the rising distrust of intellectualism and the dissolution of the American Dream. In this course, we investigate how the philosophical tradition has evaluated such developments and how philosophical thinking of the past can be a valuable tool in the quest to live an autonomous and meaningful life amidst these apparently dehumanizing trends. 4. Course Objectives The student will: Analyze and delineate the ideological assumptions involved in the cultural trends to be examined. Identify which philosophical views are similar to the identified ideological assumptions. Apply opposed and inconsistent philosophical views to those identified. Compare, contrast, and evaluate this collection of philosophies. Explain the role of philosophical assumptions in shaping our self and other-perceptions Apply discoveries to individual habits of thought. 5. Instructional Facilities Standard lecture classroom 6.
