discussion homework Academic Help
I need help with a Law question. All explanations and answers will be used to help me learn.
This assignment deals with critical thinking and a current event and will be a bit different than the past two assignments. According to Aristotle, ethical decisions impact other and making ethical decisions is achieved by practice. Consider virtue ethics, formalism and utilitarianism, and evaluate the issue posed below from the three different points of view according to Aristotle.
The issue is the recent case of Officer Amber Guyger. You will be able to easily research the case as it was all over the news and internet. Be sure to use credible sources for your references. First, provide a summary of the entire case from start to finish. Then, apply the three points of view mentioned above to the case. So, from each point of view, what would the ethical considerations be and how does that compare to the facts of the case? Then, explain your point of view with supporting citations from text, news, etc.
Remember…”To properly evaluate the moral permissibility of a course of action using critical thinking skills…
- Begin with an open mind (no preconceptions)
- Isolate and evaluate the relevant facts on both sides
- Identify the precise moral question to be answered
- Apply ethical principles to the moral question based on an objective evaluation of the facts, only then drawing a conclusion.
The same requirements apply for this as with the other writing assignments.
