Essay #3
Write an essay in response to two questions from the options below. Your total essay should be
around 5-6 pages (if you go over, then that’s no problem) in answering two total questions.
Your paper should be in typical academic format (12 pt. font, Times New Roman, etc.). Most
prompts require you to restate someone’s argument and argue for your own position on some
issue. MAKE SURE TO ARGUE FOR YOUR POSITION!!! I neither expect nor require
full-proof, knock-down arguments here, but I do expect and require for you to give the best
argument you can. IF YOU DO NOT ARGUE, THEN YOUR GRADE WILL SUFFER—
MERE ASSERTION OF YOUR POSITION IS NOT AN ARGUMENT.

1. Rawls and Nozick are representative of two major views on economic justice, and their
   views importantly and fundamentally differ from each other regarding the morality of how
   social, economic, etc. goods should be distributed in a group. What are Rawls’ and Nozick’s
   positions on the moral issues involving distributive justice? What arguments do they offer to
   support their positions? Finally, analyze these arguments: do Rawls or Nozick actually
   support their position well through the arguments given? As always, you must back up your
   claims about Nozick and Rawls with your own arguments.
2. We can divide ethical approaches to the environment into two broad camps: anthropocentric and
   non-anthropocentric. Explain more precisely this distinction and give what you think is the
   strongest argument for each view from our readings. Which approach is more plausible—
   having human-centered moral restrains regarding our interaction with the natural environment or
   non-human-centered? As always, argue for your views here.
3. Let’s do some (more) work in applying the major theory families to euthanasia. Of the three
   types we’ve discussed (consequentialism, deontology, virtue ethics), how would each reflect
   on the moral issues surrounding euthanasia? In other words, what sorts of things would the
   consequentialist/deontologist/virtue theorist find most important to reflect on about
   euthanasia? Make sure you support your claims about these theories from the texts we’ve
   read (either from the euthanasia stuff or the theoretical stuff or both). Then, as you should
   expect by now, defend what you think is the best theoretical approach to euthanasia. Which
   theory has the best view of what’s really important and helps us think through the issue the
   most plausibly? As always, argue for, support, give reasons for, etc. your view(s), no
   matter what they are.
