This class asks ‘What do we mean by ‘practical ethics’? What sort of real-world ethical problems are practical ethicists concerned with? We will discuss the nature of practical ethics and its major subfields, and then raise and discuss some key issues and major debates in practical ethics that concern philosophers and the public alike today.
