In this course we will critically examine key topics in feminism, including abortion, sexual harassment, pornography, and the politics of work and family. We will also investigate the impact of feminism on language, science, morality, and the way we interact with other cultures. Philosophers have fundamentally contributed to our understanding of what it means to be a woman. So a part of the course will be devoted to studying the place of women in the history of ideas. Students will be encouraged to develop their own arguments with respect to the readings.
