PHI 240 - Anarchism and the State


Instructor
Studtmann

What justifies the State?  Would societies be better off without it?  What would a society without a State look like?  If the State is inevitable, what would a just state look like?  These questions have been at the heart of a great deal of political theorizing in the twentieth century.  In this course, we will examine these questions by reading the work of several prominent philosophers.
