LAS 482 - Live Good Life Despite Today’s World

3 hours


Everyone wants to be happy. How can we attain true happiness? What is a virtuous life? How does today’s social networking and other technologies impact being happy? We will look at the concepts of Aristotle’s idea of happiness as well as other accounts such as hedonism, utilitarianism, existentialism, and objectivism. We will also review current academic research into how social networking and other technologies is impacting the concept of happiness. 

 

Prerequisite(s): Seniors only.
