36. Define white-collar crime—providing examples—and explain why it has become such a widespread problem.
ANSWER: White-collar crimes (WCCs) are nonviolent business crimes defined by the
Department of Justice as a "non-violent criminal act involving deceit,
concealment, subterfuge and other fraudulent activity." Examples of white-collar
crime include antitrust violations, computer and internet fraud, credit card fraud,
bankruptcy fraud, healthcare fraud, tax evasion, violation of environmental laws,
insider trading, bribery, kickbacks, money laundering, and theft of trade secrets.
White-collar crime has become more widespread, possibly due to corporate
cultures becoming deviant and encouraging unethical behavior. Incidents of WCC
tend to increase in the years following an economic recession, but the reasons for
this increase are not easy to pinpoint. Many variables may cause otherwise good
people to make bad decisions.

37. Compare and contrast the two teleological philosophies of and and discuss the bases each egoism utilitarianism
philosophy type uses to evaluate the morality of activities.
ANSWER: Egoists believe they should make decisions that maximize their own self-interest.
Utilitarians believe they should make decisions that result in the greatest total
utility, or the greatest benefit for all those affected by a decision. In an ethical
decision-making situation, an egoist will probably choose the alternative that
contributes most to their individual self-interest, while a utilitarian decision
maker calculates the utility of the consequences of all possible alternatives and
then selects the one that results in the greatest benefit for an entire group.

38. Compare and contrast the two moral philosophies of and and discuss the bases each philosophy teleology deontology
type uses to evaluate the morality of a particular activity.
ANSWER: Teleological philosophies assess the moral worth of a behavior by looking at its
consequences; deontologists argue that there are some things we should not do,
even to maximize utility. For example, deontologists would consider it wrong to
kill an innocent person or commit a serious injustice against someone, no matter
how much greater social utility might result from doing so, because such an
action would infringe on individual rights. The utilitarian, however, might
consider an action resulting in a person’s death acceptable if that action led to
some greater benefit.

39. Discuss the distinctions between the and categories of and . Why do you think some rule act utilitarianism deontology
people evaluate the morality of an action on the basis of the action itself, whereas others evaluate it in terms of its
conformity to particular moral principles or rules of conduct?
ANSWER: Rule utilitarians determine behavior on the basis of principles or rules designed to
promote the greatest utility, while act utilitarians examine specific actions and
assess whether they result in the greatest utility. Rule deontologists believe in
conformity to general moral principles such as the Golden Rule, while act
deontologists hold that actions are the proper basis by which to judge morality.
Adherents of different personal moral philosophies may disagree in their
evaluations of a given action, yet all are behaving ethically according to their own
standards.

40. Explain how the levels of Kohlberg's model of cognitive moral development may influence a person's perception of
and response to an ethical issue.
ANSWER: A person in Stage 1 responds to rules and labels of “good” and “bad” in terms of
the physical power of those who determine such rules. In Stage 2, individuals
evaluate behavior on the basis of its fairness to them. In Stage 3, ethical
motivation is still derived from obedience to rules. In stage 4, duty, respect for
authority, and the maintenance of the social order become a person’s focal points.
In Stage 5, individuals feel a sense of obligation or commitment to other groups
and recognize in some cases legal and moral points of view may conflict. In
Stage 6, people believe right is determined by universal ethical principles
everyone should follow.
