Trosolwg

Mae Patrick Cockburn yn Uwch-ddarlithydd mewn Athroniaeth ac Economi Wleidyddol. Mae ei ymchwil yn canolbwyntio ar broblemau pŵer a chyfiawnder economaidd mewn cymdeithasau cyfalafol, ac mae'n adeiladu pontydd rhwng athroniaeth wleidyddol a gwyddorau cymdeithasol bywyd economaidd. Mae wedi cyhoeddi ymchwil ar ddibyniaeth economaidd, y teulu mewn syniadaeth wleidyddol, perthnasoedd eiddo gwrthdrawiadol, dadleuon cymdeithasol a chyfreithiol am anghenion a dulliau mewn damcaniaeth wleidyddol normadol. Mae ei lyfr diweddaraf, Two Stories about Capitalism, yn gyflwyniad i ddadansoddiad normadol o sefydliadau economaidd canolog cyfalafiaeth a chaiff ei gyhoeddi yn 2026 (Polity Press). Mae ei ymchwil bresennol yn archwilio'r 'disgrifiad o anghyfiawnder' fel dull mewn damcaniaeth moeseg a gwleidyddol.

Mae'n croesawu ymholiadau am oruchwyliaeth mewn pynciau sy'n ymwneud â chyfiawnder cymdeithasol ac economaidd.

HUP104 Living Well and Doing Good - An Introduction to Ethics

This module introduces students to key issues and theories within ethics. It examines some important moral thinkers, including Aristotle, Immanuel Kant and John Stuart Mill, along with Buddhist and Confucian ethics. It also explores the nature of well-being and what it means to live well. Finally, it considers concepts such as egoism and altruism, emotivism, relativism and objectivism. Underpinning this module is a focus on how we should live our lives and what our relationships with other people should be like.
HUP105 Critical Reasoning

This module introduces students to the core elements of critical reasoning: how to identify, construct and analyse arguments; what makes an argument valid and sound; common errors in reasoning; and the basics of propositional logic. In studying these topics, students will cultivate core critical reasoning skills and apply these in analysing real-world textual examples.
HUP132 Reading Great Works of Philosophy

¿This module consists in a detailed examination of three influential philosophical texts. The module offers students the opportunity to engage in a thorough, carefully-paced reading of the works of important philosophers, developing an appreciation of both their core ideas and the context in which they were writing. This allows students to learn about influential philosophers and to cultivate their ability to read primary texts, understand philosophical ideas and analyse arguments. The texts studied can change each year. Recent texts include Lucius Annaeus Seneca¿s Epistles (Letters), Jean-Paul Sartre¿s Existentialism is a Humanism, and Mary Midgley¿s The Ethical Primate.¿
PO-3325 Capitalism and Justice

This module unpacks the fundamental political dilemmas that underpin capitalist economies today. These include questions like: should states control the production of money? Do markets deliver social justice? Is the ownership of property a form of power over others? And is economic inequality the inevitable price for prosperity? The module draws on work in political philosophy, economic sociology, and political economy, in order to examine, and debate the political problems at the centre of our economic practices and institutions. While drawing on a range of empirical studies, the focus of the module is on developing the conceptual and theoretical competences needed for informed normative (ethical and political) analysis of contemporary capitalist practices and institutions. The aim is to give students the resources to develop strong arguments for their own political conclusions on these topics.
