Deviant Philosophy.
Group Topic – “Paid Work is Voluntary Servitude”
Third Lecture as a Group.
Week Nine’s Lecture (Thursday 22nd) was informative. Blair, unfortunately, couldn’t make the lecture but we have all decided on what reading we should do for the presentation and have arranged to meet on Monday 27th to discuss progress and any thoughts/idea’s our reading gives us for the presentation.
Nick is going to be reading work by Mill and Baudrillard. Aleksy is going to be reading Carol Pateman’s The Sexual Contract, I will be researching into Rousseau and if I can find any Locke or Voltaire them as well; Blair should be asked to focus on either Locke or Voltaire (thus sharing my work-load).
During the lecture Meena made some suggestions to our group – one of which would be to look into Nietzsche’s Slave/Master Morality theory which suggests that “Promise keeping is an expression of slave morality”. Further reading would need to be done before we’ll know if it’ll fit into our presentation or not.
