Ethics on the Job: Cases a Strategiesnd
1. “My solution upholds the principle of autonomy for ME, but it violates MY BOSS’S autonomy.” Is this possible? How can the same solution both uphold and violate the same principle?
2. What is moral arithmetic, and why is it either good or bad? Give an example of moral arithmetic.
3. Explain fully the Evaluation stage of the RESOLVED strategy.
4. “Conscience and intuitions are a good way to justify ethical conclusions, since we all rely on them every day.” How would you evaluate this claim using the information in section 4.7?
5. Think of at least one more objection that might be raised to the solution for “The Not-So-Great Gatsby” case analysis in section 3.2. How would you answer this new objection? Ask other students for their objections if you are having trouble coming up with a new one of your own.
