Assignment Goals and Objectives This assignment is designed to test your ability to explain AND apply the theories you’ve been learning about over the past 2 weeks. To succeed on this assignment you should be able to: Explain the central arguments for virtue ethics (Aristotle), deontology (Kant), and utilitarianism (Mill). Apply each of the theories to a scenario to “test” the feasibility of their normativity. Formulate objections to (Aristotle), deontology (Kant), and utilitarianism (Mill) and consider possible solutions. Before you begin answering the questions you need to do some honest self-reflection and ask yourself if you understand the material well enough to explain it and apply it. A helpful resource is the Writing Philosophy page.Assignment Instructions There are three questions listed below you must answer ONLY two. Each question is worth 5 points for 10 points total. Each question has a similar format: you’ll be presented with a scenario and you must Explain the relevant aspects of the philosophical theories in question. This is similar to a philosophical exegesis. Click HERE for tips on how to do philosophical exegesis. Apply the philosophical theories to the scenario in question. For example, you should explain what Mill’s theory would require Mrs. Smith’s lawyer to do with her will and, most importantly, why. Then do the same for Kant. Assess which philosophical theory offers the best moral guidance for how one should act in the scenario in question. This should include an argument about why, for example, you maintain that Mill’s theory gives the best guidance to Mrs. Smith’s lawyer AND an argument about why, following the same example, you maintain Kant’s theory is inadequate. You should also include a potential way to strengthen the inadequate theory. Although the assignment is like an essay, you DO NOT need an introduction or conclusion. (Note that this is different than with your final essay answers, which do require introductions, thesis statements, and conclusions.)
