Dig Deeper: The Moral Maze

Earlier this month and excellent series returned to the airwaves that should be obligatory listening for any A-level RS student and those wishing to study RS, PPE or Moral Philosophy. The Moral Maze is presented by Michael Burke who chairs a panel of experts as they question a number of "witnesses" about a particular ethical problem.

The great thing about this format is not only are you informed about an ethical issue (the first episode of this series, which can be found here, is about whether we should talk to terrorists) but you also get to listen into a very good debate and series of critical questions. After the witlessness have been interrogated by the panel there is then a review of their evidence which normally sparks more debate. The panel are always passionate and really express their strong opinions.


You can download this as a podcast (here) and listen to it at any time meaning there is no excuse! What a great way to get informed and further your exposure to Moral Philosophy.
