Aims The course is designed : a. in the ethics part, to make students more aware of the special features of ethical procedures in the assessment of attitudes and implied behaviour relating issues linked with sexual, marital and family life. b. in the philosophical anthropology part, to show the scientific rigour of philosophical reasoning and the distinction between normative and descriptive thinking.
