Faced with difficult questions, people often tend to dismiss and marginalize dissent. Political and moral disagreements can be incredibly polarizing and sometimes even dangerous. And whether it is Christian fundamentalism, Islamic extremism or militant atheism, religious dialogue continues to be tinged with arrogance, dogma and ignorance. The world needs more people who are sensitive to the reasons both for and against their beliefs, and who are willing to consider the possibility that their political, religious, and moral beliefs may be wrong. The world needs more intellectual humility. But what is intellectual humility, anyway? And why do people seem so drawn to intellectual arrogance? Psychologists, philosophers, theologians, and educators are now suggesting some answers. In this course we try to define intellectual humility and intellectual virtues in general, and we ask how we know who is humble. All lectures are delivered by leading scholars, and the course is organized around a series of engaging readings and practical assignments to help you address humility issues in your daily life. This course is part of a series exploring theory, science, and applied issues related to intellectual humility (the last two in June and November 2017). Completing all three courses will give you a broader understanding of this fascinating subject.
