PHIL2000B - Philosophy of Disability

Summer Session II/III 2013 Course Offering

PHIL2000B - Philosophy of Disability

Instructor: Frank Jankunis

Day/Time: TR (9:00—11:50 a.m.)

Recommended Background: PHIL1000


This course will address questions like: Can one be disabled and healthy? Is there an important distinction between impairment, disability, and handicap? How, if all, are disabilities different from diseases? Is there any such thing as normal human functioning? What is it to be able to do some action? Can it be a good thing to be disabled? Is it morally permissible to choose a disabled child? To what extent do philosophical theories of disability need to rely on the actual experiences of disabled individuals?
