HUP127 Fundamental Issues in Philosophy

. This module explores philosophical attempts to understand the world and our place within it. It does this by examining key questions and debates about the nature of reality (metaphysics) and our ability to understand it (epistemology). These issues include: how do objects persist through time, even when they undergo significant change? What is the relationship between the mind and the body? Can we experience the world in itself or is our knowledge of the world necessarily shaped by our language, culture and/or body? When are we justified in believing the things that we do?
PPS122 The Philosophy of Social Policy: An Introduction to Concepts, Ideas and Ideologies

Social policy draws on the intellectual traditions of the political and philosophical sciences as a basis for its approach to understanding topics such as equality, fairness, social justice, social citizenship, freedom or liberalism. These concepts are important when tracing the key ideas and principles which have influenced both past and current developments of welfare provisions in the UK, or when thinking critically about why we have needed policy and legislation to ensure equality of treatment for people of various social, cultural and ethnic backgrounds. By developing a sound understanding of these topics, students will be better equipped to develop informed responses to some of the key challenges facing governments today and which are explored in more depth through other social policy modules: should governments promote equality of access to higher education by subsidising fees for all? Now that we are living in a ¿global village¿, should we be thinking about welfare needs from a global citizenship perspective? Is it fair that some people earn high incomes but still receive child benefit? Are policy-makers today still influenced by neo-liberal values about the role that market forces should take in meeting social needs?
