Suggested Topics

Since the requirement for forming a group is that all
members have to agree on the same topic, it's a good idea
to be familiar with the list of topics and to think about which topic interests you. It doesn't have to be a topic you already know; you may decide to choose a topic
you don't know in order to explore it. You'll have a week or so to jostle around and switch groups, but after that, you'll have to make a decision about which group you'll stay with for the rest of the quarter. Here are the
suggested topics. Click on any topic below and you'll get a page which elaborates that topic; corresponding text sections and page numbers for each topic will also be
given.

1. Theories of truth: objective versus relative truth.

2. Ethics: ethical absolutism versus ethical relativism.

3. Language and postcolonial identity.

4. Religion and metaphysics.
