Ethics and the News
For
Week 4
, address the following in a three-page paper:
Identify a current event or contemporary social issue that
involves ethical values. Your issue must be broad enough to
sustain deep philosophical analysis and must have relevance to
your community. A good choice of issue is one that (1) involves
a decision that must be made that involves competing ethical
values and considerations, (2) includes with various available
options about which reasonable people can disagree, (3)
concretely affects people’s lives, and (4) might be influenced by
external and internal factors such as social norms, oppression,
religious and other personal beliefs, socially-imposed
constraints (such as laws), and physical limitations. Issues that
only affect a few people or have only a minor impact are
probably too narrow. Issues that you are not open to examining
with an open mind will also not work well for this assignment.
For some topic suggestions, you might want to browse the
website of a reputable news organization or review some
political blogs you follow.
Identify at least two news articles on your topic located using
the South University Online Library and/or reputable news
outlets. Make sure that the articles you choose present at least
two different accounts of the values that should be considered
in addressing the issue and include information and facts that
you can use to develop your arguments and analysis. If you
cannot locate two news articles on your topic, or if all of the
articles share the same perspective, you should choose another
topic. You should cite the two articles using correct APA
citation.
Explain at least one ethical theory from your assigned readings.
Cite support from the primary text selections in the chapter as
well as authoritative secondary sources such as the course text
and online lectures.
Analyze the issue using the theory of ethics. For example, you
might discuss utilitarianism, deontology, virtue/care ethics, or
existentialism.
Contrast this analysis with the approach a second theory would
take. For instance, you might contrast deontology with
utilitarianism by distinguishing duty from the principle of
utility, or compare care ethics and existentialism by discussing
the relative approaches to intersubjectivity.

Make sure that the articles you choose present at least two different accounts of the values that should be considered in addressing the issue and include information and facts that you can use to develop your arguments and analysis. If you cannot locate two news articles on your topic, or if all of the articles share the same perspective, you should choose another topic. You should cite the two articles using correct APA citation. Explain at least one ethical theory from your assigned readings.
