Philosophy: Philosophy of Law and Governance
Master
How can we respond to grave injustices committed by the state in the past, like slavery and racism? What does it mean to be a free and equal citizen in a modern democracy? What are the ethical considerations behind euthanasia and abortion laws? If you have a legal background, but you’ve found yourself asking questions about the underlying justice behind legal assumptions and provisions, you’ve come to the right place.
In the Philosophy of Law and Governance specialisation of the two-year Master’s in Philosophy, you’ll tackle challenging questions like these, gaining a deeper understanding of the systems of law and justice in Western society. The programme is interdisciplinary. General philosophical courses and specific courses in philosophy of law are combined with a student's own selection of legal courses. The students of this track usually complete simultaneously a one year master's degree in Law.
