The Role of Emotion in Ethical Decision-Making

After viewing and reading Callahan’s article “The Role of Emotion in Ethical Decision-Making”, write a 4-5 (double-spaced) page paper that either supports or refutes Callahan’s argument about emotions in ethical decision-making.

You must find and cite (in a standard citation format like APA or MLA) at least 2 credible external sources as part of your argument (your friend’s personal opinion is not a credible source – a peer-reviewed academic article is.

In the context of large organizations where professionals work, what could be done in order to make it possible for professionals to fulfill their professional ethical responsibilities?

Engineers’ responsibilities,

In the last few weeks of the course, the articles have dealt with engineers’ responsibilities, about professionals working in large organizations, and deprofessionalization. All of these topics revolve around a common theme: that professionals often have to deal with pressure that pushes them toward actions that conflict with their profession’s code of ethics. For instance, engineers at Ford were ignored by executives when the engineers reported on safety concerns about the Pinto. In that case, the engineers were in a dilemma, caught between doing what they should do as engineers, and doing what the Ford executives wanted them to do as employees. Similarly, Shahinpoor & Matt describe a dilemma involving professionals working in organizations where management does not tolerate dissent: professionals in those work environments are caught between doing what they believe is right, and going along with and remaining obedient to management.

James, Davis, Shahinpoor & Matt, and McPhail propose various ways that professionals in these dilemmas could act in defense of their professional ethical responsibilities. Some involve actions that the professional or the whole profession could take, and some involve changes to the organizations where professionals work.

Question Prompt

In the context of large organizations where professionals work, what could be done in order to make it possible for professionals to fulfill their professional ethical responsibilities? (“Professional ethical responsibilities” means the ethical responsibilities established by the profession as such — the group of all members of that same profession, regardless of where they work.)

What kind of moral theory best helps you answer the moral dilemmas in this story? Virtue theory? Kant’s categorical imperative? Utilitarianism? Something else, or some combination?

The Hunger Games Moral Issues

(100 points) Write a paper (4-5 pages). Select some of the moral issues presented in The Hunger Games saga (three to four issues would be a good range, depending on how fully you intend to talk about them). You may use any of the installments in the trilogy of novels by Suzanne Collins (The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and Mockingjay) or the movies based on them. Begin your paper with a statement about which book(s)/film(s) you are working with (some moral issues change over the course of the saga). Make direct references to situations or dialogue within these stories. a

Analyze the moral issues you have chosen, using your own logic and feelings along with references to philosophers covered in the class (this can include material from the student summaries about contemporary moral problems). Ask what kind of moral theory best helps you answer the moral dilemmas in this story? Virtue theory? Kant’s categorical imperative? Utilitarianism? Something else, or some combination?

Here are some examples of moral issues that are obvious in these stories, though you certainly do not need to limit yourself to the examples listed here:

Killing: When is it justified, if ever?

Civil disobedience (when is it right to resist authority, and by what means—nonviolent? Violent?)

Altruism and self-sacrifice. Why do people do good? Why do they sacrifice themselves for others or for a greater purpose than themselves?

How should children be treated, including using them as means to an end? (The Capitol uses children as a means of punishing the districts for rebelling, and as a way to keep them afraid of ever rebelling again.)

Poverty—the hoarding of resources by a privileged few, while the many work to make that possible.

The use of torture.

Lying—the protagonists lie frequently. Is this justified? (Peeta, the hands-down “best” person in the story, lies skillfully to protect others, especially Katniss. Katniss also becomes adept at lying, and sometimes struggles more with being dishonest than with the rather obvious issue of killing.)

Genetic engineering—the Capitol’s “muttations” (“mutts”), genetically enhanced animals used as weapons.

Finally, answer this basic question: If you were put in the same position as the “tributes”, what would you do? (Peeta struggles with this before their first time in the arena: “If I have to die, I want to find a way of showing them that I’m more than just a piece in their games.”)

Capitalism vs. the Climate

This SPW requires some cooperation for completion, and with more cooperation, the more possible points.

To complete this assignment respond to the following prompts in a single post. Then, respond to any other students post (though, try to respond to those without any responses first, of course).

Prompts Choose 1:

– What, according to Klein is among the major reasons for climate change denial by Republicans and other conservatives? What is it that they fear about “the climate-change hoax?” What about this conservative story regarding climate change does Klein believe is correct? (Note: not all conservatives or Republicans deny climate change.)

– In the later portions of the essay (21ff) Klein references research that tries to understand why people may deny the realities laid out by science. What do you think of this explanation? What does this help Klein see as particularly dangerous about climate change denial (25)?
What are the concerns that Klein raises about the strategies of the major (large scale) environmental organizations in relation to this form of climate denial?

Prompts 2:

– Identify 2 of the 6 ways that responding to climate change raises concerns for conservatives, according to Klein, and try to explain how responding appropriately to the realities of climate change poses a threat to conservative ideologies. Do you agree?
