政治制度的好壞深深影響了人民的生活品質,在公義的政治制度下,人民可以安居樂業,而在暴政下,人民則處在水深火熱之中。我們可以就著各種政治制度而有不同的討論,像是政府如何組織或實際上如何運作,及其如何影響人民。但是,有些討論則是規範的討論,像是政治制度本身或其原則的好壞、公義與否的討論。政治哲學關懷的是釐清與評價政治制度建立背後的原則。在本課程中,我們會以政治上的自由主義為核心討論政治規範性的問題,從契約論講起,一直到當代的自由主義代表羅爾斯(John Rawls),並且藉著自由主義的批判者,像是社群主義釐清與評價政治制度後面的原則問題。此外,本課程還討論當今熱議的相關課題,如全球正義與轉型正義等。本課程目標有三:1.引導同學分析諸如公平等政治規範性概念;2.展示主要政治哲學理論的論證;3.同學學會應用哲學技巧(基本技巧包括:批判式閱讀理解、重述論證)分析政治哲學問題。在充分了解到上述目標與學習期待之後,學生就可以更有自信掌握自己的學習過程。為了達成上述目標,學生的課前準備以及出席上課就是必要的,課前準備包括花時間閱讀、註記、提問,出席課堂主要是聆聽與參與討論,將課前準備應用在討論上。The good and bad political system deeply affects the people's quality of life. Under the public political system, the people can live in peace and prosperity, while under tyranny, the people are in dire straits. We can discuss differently based on various political systems, such as how the government organizes or operates in an actual way, and how it affects the people. However, some discussions are standard discussions, such as discussions of badness, justice and noness of the political system itself or its principles. What political philosophy is concerned with is the principles behind the establishment of a political system of clearing and evaluating. In this course, we will discuss the issue of political normativeness with political liberalism at the core, from the conventional discussion to the contemporary representative of liberalism, John Rawls, and through the criticism of liberalism Such as the principle problem behind the political system of community clearance and evaluation. In addition, this course also discusses relevant topics that are currently hot, such as global justice and transformation justice. There are three goals of this course: 1. Guide students to analyze such as political norms such as fairness; 2. Show the arguments of the main political philosophy; 3. Students apply philosophical skills (basic skills include: critical reading and understanding, restatement of the arguments) analysis Political philosophy problem. After fully understanding the above goals and learning expectations, students can be more confident in mastering their learning process. In order to achieve the above goals, students' pre-class preparation and attending classes are necessary. Pre-class preparation includes taking time to read, note, and ask questions. Attending classes is mainly about listening and participating, and applying pre-class preparations to discussions.
