Identify and explain the ethical theory.

    0

    Task:

    In the Warburton text as well as in this module, we covered two different ethical theories:

    1. Utilitarianism
    2. Kantianism (Kant’s Ethical Theory)

    And then we covered several problems with them. Your task is to write a short paper where you do the following:

    1. Identify and explain the ethical theory.(5pts)
    2. Reconstruct and explain in your own words a counterexample or argument against it. (5pts)
    3. Evaluate the argument/counterexample (tell me whether you think the argument was good or bad). (5pts)
    4. Explain why you think that the argument/counterexample is good/bad. (5pts)

    Each of these should take you around a paragraph to answer. Since this is worth 20pts, this is worth 5% of your total grade.
