In Postmodern Philosophy, a nine-hour course, Dr. Stephen Hicks takes us on an exploration of the evolution of 20th-century philosophy, from the pragmatism of Dewey and Russell to the postmodern ideas of Foucault and Derrida. We examine how philosophers responded to the major events and challenges of the era, such as World War I, World War II, and the Holocaust, and how their ideas shaped political ideologies and global conflicts. The course also delves into the emergence of critical feminist and race theories, as well as the development of objective approaches to ethics and the debate surrounding the objectivity of science. Ultimately, we establish the profound influence of philosophy on history, demonstrating how philosophical ideas have the power to transform society and shape the course of human progress.
