Dilema

Instructions

For this assignment propose a scenario where you or someone you know are

confronted with a moral dilemma relating to cultural diversity and multiculturalism. It

cannot be the same as what was covered in the week one discussion.

Cultural diversity refers to

religious, sexual, racial, and other forms of social difference.

A moral dilemma is a situation in which one must make a decision between two or more

options such that the options involve seemingly ethical and/or unethical conduct.

Address the following q

uestions:

·

What was the situation? What did the dilemma involve?

·

What would a subjective moral relativist say is the right approach to the

dilemma? Why would that kind of relativist say that?

·

What would a cultural relativist say is the right approach to the

dilemma? Why

would that kind of relativist say that? Is that approach correct?

·

What did you the person confronting the dilemma decide to do? What moral

justification did they give? Is that approach morally correct?

·

Was there an objective moral truth (the

objectively right thing to do) in this

situation? Why or why not?

Remember, the dilemma should be detailed with description and dialogue. Regard the

questions as requirements.

This is an essay, so rather than simply providing a list of

brief answers to que

stions, provide an in

-

difficult ethical

situation..
