GOULD SCHOOL OF LAW

New law and philosophy class attracts top scholars, explores heady issues

his fall, USC Law and philosophy students are asking tough questions and T providing substantive comments to a string of scholars from around the country who are presenting papers-in-progress as part of Professor Andrei Marmor’s Law and Philosophy Workshop Seminar. Co-taught with Gideon Yaffe, USC Professor of Law and Philosophy, the course is hosting such law and philosophy luminaries as Harry Frankfurt (Princeton); Jeremy Waldron (NYU); Thomas Christiano (Arizona); Larry Temkin (Rutgers); Peter Railton (Michigan); Frances Kamm (Harvard) and Thomas Scanlon (Harvard). The visitors provide their papers in advance; students read them and meet with professors Marmor and Yaffe to discuss questions and comments, which are compiled and presented to the visitor in advance of the workshop. Each workshop is launched with a discussion of the students’ ques- tions (although other faculty and guests participate in the discussion as well). It’s a fresh take on USC Law’s successful workshop series. The goal of the course, says Marmor, is to engage students in thoughtful and fruitful discussions with the field’s most notable scholars. This fall, the discussions center on the broad subject of equality in the moral and political realm, tackling such topics as Jeremy Waldron (left) of NYU with USC Law why people should (or shouldn’t) be treated as equals, what kinds of equality Professor Andrei Marmor. are valuable, and what are the moral and political implications of various views about equality.
