Write a paper that engages with Aquinas and his ideas about human nature, ethics, and law.

Using this prompt:

Which system of law would your prefer: a system of simple laws, or a system of complex laws (like the ones we currently have)?Why? [For the purposes of this prompt , I’ll use “complex” to refer to complexity at the level of Aquinas’ text.]

This paper asks you to compare the  functions of law in Aquinas and Confucius. We seem to live in a legal system closer to the one Aquinas envisions than the one Confucius does. Is this a good thing for us as citizens? Why?Some questions to consider:

• Should the law be only comprehensible to experts?

• In both systems, the law educates citizens; in which one can it actually do so?

• Can a system of complex laws educate citizens(like today’s American population)?

• Does the complexity of our laws reflect the complexity of our world?Ifso,shouldwe“trade-off”acomplexsystemoflawforthebenefitsofourcomplexworld?Whyisthis“trade-off”worthit?Howcouldyouargueforthis“trade-off”?Whatmetricwouldweusetocomparethebenefitsorcostsofeach?
