      Content of Learning Activity

      The question of the subject will serve as a guideline. The question of ethics and philosophical anthropology, which are indissociable from this first question, are mentioned in the reference framework of the course of philosophy and citizenship, such as the questions of freedom, autonomy, nature and the status of individual and collective "beliefs", the links between the individual and the community, the relationship to violence, and the impact of new technologies on individual and collective behavior. Teaching method
      The EU consists of 2 parts consisting of 7 sessions of 2 hours each. The two parts will take the form of a lecture (which does not prevent interactions). During each session, sequences of texts representative of the authors addressed will be analyzed. Part 1: History of Ethics and Philosophical Anthropology
      The first part of the course will consist in the presentation of the systems of thought of the main currents and authors who have marked the field of philosophical ethics and anthropology. It will be a matter of showing how the different conceptions of the subject and, consequently, indissociably, of freedom, autonomy or relation to oneself, to others and to the world, are each placed in historical and cultural contexts as well as in particular philosophical systems. Part Two: Ethical Issues
      The second part of the course will consist in the presentation of ethical problems (eg, what are beliefs, what are the functions of a myth?) Or major controversies (for example, between Sartre and Camus on the use of violence or the use of violence by Bernard Stiegler on the impact of new technologies on individual and social behavior) in relation to the themes developed in the Philosophy and Citizenship course. The objective here is not to decide for one point of view, but to highlight the specificity, coherence and intelligence of each approach.
