See CRICOS-registered alternativesThis unit introduces three of the enduring themes of philosophy: namely (i) Freedom, Fatalism and Determinism, (ii) the Self and (iii) the Ethical Life. In this unit you will begin by considering whether we are genuinely free to shape our futures or whether fatalism about the future might be true. The unit then considers the nature of the self. We ask what is the self and where is it located? Finally, in the third module, you will examine important philosophical discussions of ethics by thinkers such as Aristotle, Kant and John Stuart Mill. The aim of the unit is to provide you with an overview and introduction to key philosophical questions that are central to the very idea of being human.
