星際迷航 (Star Trek) 的法律與正義
持續進修中心課程
(課程資料目前僅提供英文版本)
Star Trek, that fictionalized universe brought to «life» in numerous tv series and several films have, since the original series, received a well-deserved particular attention from legal scholars, legal practitioners, philosophers, and others.
In truth it presents a new future world that is strongly impregnated by ethics, justice, cosmopolitanism, due process of law, non-discrimination, among many others. It projects a society of values and not a society where force is dominant. In many legal systems and in many faculties the study of Star trek has recognizable relevance and a useful tool for teaching law, and also philosophy.
Some episodes, such «Measure of a Man», to mention a single example, are absolutely well crafted and indeed teaches the viewer in such complex and relevant issues as what is a person and what is a thing? Is Data, an Android, a person or a thing?
The course considers law in the context of narrative. Law features prominently in many different types of narratives. We will analyse the construction of law specifically in film and television in the so-called Star Trek universe.
In the classes, episodes or parts of, will be viewed and then discussed.
