課程概述

一般常識道德認為我們擁有特殊義務，而這些特殊義務源自於我們與他人的特殊關係，例如親人、朋友、同學、鄰居、國人等。特殊義務的理據何在︖如何區分特殊義務與ㄧ般義務︖如何處理特殊義務與ㄧ般義務間的衝突問題︖這些都是有關特殊義務的重要問題。本課程藉助結果主義、意志論與反意志論的觀點，嘗試對這些議題進行深度的分析與探討。
Common sense morality suggests that we have special obligations, owing to the relationship we stand in with other people, such as our family, friends, neighbors, compatriots. What is the ground of special obligation? How to distinguish from general from special obligation? How to deal with the conflict between and general and special obligation? These are important questions concerning special obligation. In this course, we will explore how Consequentialism, Voluntarism and Anti-voluntarism answer these questions before we assess the strength and weakness of each solution.
 

課程目標
 使學生能了解對於特殊義務的不同立場、觀點，並且得以進一步評論、批判這些不同的詮釋理解，最後讓學生能夠藉此反思、型塑屬於自己的看法。
The aim of this course is to help students critically examine alternative views of special obligation, and eventually achieve a better understanding of the strength and weakness of each view.
