Final Debates--Philosophers R Us

While philosophy can be difficult to read and more difficult to understand, knowing a little about philosophers and their ideas may be very helpful in the final debates. I would not suggest you try to read the original works, but try to find summaries, encyclopedia, or dictionary explanations of the following philosophers and their ideas:

Thomas Hobbes--Social Contract
Georg Hegel--Dialectic
Immanuel Kant--Morality
Jean Jacques Rousseau--General Will
John Locke--Freedom
John Stuart Mill--On Liberty, Utilitarianism, "tyranny of the majority"
GE Moore--concept of "good"
Max Weber--Comments on freedom

This is by no means a complete list, but it is meant to steer you in direction of people and their ideas that are relevant to our final debate topics.
