PHIL 484: Philosophical Anthropology: Race Theory
Jacqueline Scott

In this course we will examine several contemporary arguments within the field of race theory. The two major questions that guide this field are: What is race? What values do and/or should we assign to race in our society?. The course will be divided into three parts: 1) the historical roots of contemporary arguments about race; 2) several contemporary arguments about race; 3) a few of the social/political implications about these arguments.
