Instructions
Rosalind Hursthouse argues that Virtue Theory continues to be a viable ethical/moral theory for the 21st century, although many question its limitations. Whereas previous ethical philosophers often argued that there is (generally) one course of action that can be viewed as the “right way” in any given circumstance, Hursthouse believes the focus of ethics should be on whether we act well in each circumstance (for example: courageously, responsibly, honestly, equitably). She also argues that two different people won’t always make the same choice when faced with the same moral dilemma, depending upon their life experiences, beliefs, and values. Thus, what’s most important is that we cultivate virtues– qualities– that we can employ when faced with difficult situations. Not that there is always one (or one best) choice to make for all people, always, when faced with a difficult situation.
Consider the difference between teaching and developing virtuous qualities that people would use in difficult situations versus providing a specific course of action that is always the correct choice for everyone in such situations. Which gives the better opportunity to lead a “good life”? Refer to Hursthouse and any of the other philosophers from this unit to help with your response. And feel free to use your own experiences, direct or indirect, in your response.
Finally, remember to clearly cite your source(s) using MLA or APA formatting style with an in-text citation and a bibliographical citation at the end of your submission.

“Ethics and Cultural Influences in Justifying Warfare and Imposing Democracy”
PHL 218 Module Six Short Paper Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
In this week’s required resources, we have explored situations when using force or warfare is justified for particular reasons. We have also considered how peace can be achieved and how it can be sustained in the long term. This assignment will help you express your opinion about a question related to war, conflict, neutrality, and peace while considering how your culture and ethical frameworks influence your opinions.
Directions
For this short paper, choose one of the following scenarios and respond to it:
Scenario One
The survival of a particular political community itself is at stake. (Types of political communities might be nation-states, fundamentalist organizations, religious communities, or political parties.) In this instance, is it ethically permissible to use any means necessary to fight for it?
Scenario Two
A country has been suspected of ethnic cleansing or genocide, and the United Nations is considering intervention. The current government is a totalitarian dictatorship. Is it ethically permissible to impose democracy on an undemocratic regime? Why, or why not?
Specifically, you must address the following:
Explain why you think the action proposed in your chosen scenario is or is not ethically permissible.
Describe how your culture influences your opinion about this.
Explain how your ethical frameworks influence your opinion about this. -

Greater Good Analysis: The Ethics of Organ Transplants in Healthcare “The Growing Need for Organ Transplants: Addressing the Shortage of Donors” Slide 1: Introduction – Brief overview of the topic – Importance of organ transplants for patients with end-stage organ failure – Thesis statement:
Greater Good Analysis
For this week′s assignment respond to one of the following options, and include Option 1, 2, or 3 as part of your heading.
Option 1: The first option is to name and describe in detail a key specific and recent healthcare technology. What are at least two key moral problems this technology creates? What are the proper moral guidelines for dealing with it in your view? Compare your approach to what a utilitarian and ethical egoist would say (each independently). Consider whether differing ethical beliefs globally might or not agree with what you say.
Option 2: In the second option, name and describe in detail a key specific and recent social technology. What are at least two key moral problems this technology creates? What are the proper moral guidelines for dealing with it in your view? Compare your moral approach to what a utilitarian and social contract ethicist would say (each independently). Consider whether differing ethical beliefs globally might or not agree with what you say.
Option 3: John Doe, Patient One, is in late stage of kidney disease. If he does not receive a new kidney, then he is predicted to die within a week. Doe is 45, single, and has no children. Doctors theorize that Doe damaged his kidney by not following a low-salt diet. Doe inherited one million dollars and is known for giving money to charity. Without a transplant, he will probably be forced to spend all his money searching for a kidney outside of the usual legal channels. Patient Two is Jane Doe (no relation to John). Patient Two is a mother of two children (ages 21 and 24). She is divorced and 55 years old. She developed kidney problems due to eating a high-fat and high-sugar diet. If she does not receive a kidney within one month, doctors believe she will die. Patient Three is an orphan. This orphan lives in a state facility. She was born with a genetic condition that constantly damages her kidney. The only known approach to her condition is to provide her with a kidney transplant every so often. She is 11 and has already undergone two kidney transplants. She will perish in two months if she does not receive another transplant.
All three patients are at the same hospital. The hospital only has one kidney to give out. The orphan′s birth parents were known to be of a religion that is opposed to organ donation. The other patients come from religions that do not oppose organ donation. Who should get the kidney? Why should that candidate receive it over the others? Devise a course of social action and a solution for this case by using the ethics of egoism and then utilitarianism to a key moral conflict involving health care in this case. Appraise the interests of diverse populations (in terms of ethnicity, race, religion, sexual orientation, etc.) and how they relate to the case. Consider whether differing ethical beliefs globally might or not agree with what you say.
For all the options:
Cite the textbook and incorporate outside sources, including citations.
You should not be using any text you used in a discussion board or assignment for this class or any previous class.
Consider whether differing ethical beliefs globally might or not agree with what you say.
You will submit the following:
An audiovisual presentation that presents one of the options above. Be sure to give equal time to each element. Doing a PowerPoint presentation with audio recorded on the slides is preferred. Please refer to the Narrated PowerPoint Tutorial located in the Required Resources in this assignment.
Please provide a transсrіpt of anything said in the recording aloud that does not appear as text on a slide. This transсrіpt can be provided as a Word document or placed in the Notes section on the PowerPoint slides.
The link or a scan of the article mentioning any health technology, social technology, or case you are reporting on. If you made up the case, please indicate that in your report. If you choose to do option #3 (the case about a shortage of transplant kidneys), your article would likely be an article about the shortage of transplant organs, or a shortage of people signing up to be transplant donors, or the status of educating people about being donors, etc.
Requirements
Length: 4-6 minutes narrated presentation
Slide length: 4-6 slides (not including title slide, conclusion slide, or references slide)
Title slide
Conclusion slide
References slide (minimum of 2 scholarly sources cited in APA format; not narrated)
