Course Objectives: | The aim of this course is to describe the foundations of philosophy. The course gives due attention to specific philosophical questions related to the relationship between the idea of self that emerges in modernity along with the scientific worldview, on the one hand, and social structures in general, on the other. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; The students who succeeded in this course will be able to: (1)Identify various conceptual approaches to philosophy (2)Describe major theories about knowledge (3)Acquire conceptual and analytical thinking related to philosophy (4)Develop to apply theoretical ideas to social science (5) Develop to build micro and macro link in analyzing philosophy by using several theories |
In this course specific philosophical questions related to the relationship between the idea of self that emerges in modernity along with the scientific worldview, on the one hand, and social structures in general, on the other will be taught. |
