Essay 1

Identify an ethical problem: a specific situation in human life wherein people have to make actionable judgements that are inherently questionable, dubious, and perhaps dangerous. The problem can be from your personal lived experience, from contemporary lived experience (known to you or to some modern society you are aware of), from history (recent or ancient), from literature, or from a thought experiment (that you devise yourself or inherit from someone else, whom you should credit). Tell me (a) what the situation is; (b) who is involved; and (c) how the consequences are projected to affect people in the situation and thereafter. Be specific.

Essay 2

· Propose a solution to your problem. Use one of the moral theories discussed in the course (virtue ethics, deontology, utilitarianism, emotivism, divine command theory, ethics of care, relativism, antitheory) to propose a solution to your problem. Tell me (a) how your theory of choice conceptualizes the kind of environment wherein your situation occurs; (b) how your theory recognizes moral agents, risks, and values within that environment; (c) what your theory says regarding consequences of human action; and (d) how this allows you to offer an actionable solution to the problem(s) in your situation.

Essay 3

· Write a rebuttal of your second essay, using a different moral theory. Tell me (a) how this new theory construes the moral environment of your situation differently than the theory you used previously; (b) how it recognizes agency, risk, and moral values; (c) how it views consequences; (d) how the actionable solutions it enables are different from, and at some point opposed to, those your original theory facilitates.
