Capitalism, Victimization, and the Criminal Justice System: The Ethical Implications of Allowing Criminals to Profit From Their Crimes
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page observation that capitalism can be linked to victimization and the criminal justice system in a number of diverse ways.

Captain Rockwood And Haiti: Military Ethics
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Captain Rockwood experienced a collision between conscience and duty, a test of one's moral constitution from which no human can escape unscathed; if the issue at hand is so daunting as to erect such a pillar of doubt, while at the same time drive one to contemplate the validity of its importance over and above one's personal conflict, then there can be no question as to the legitimacy of hesitation. From childhood and throughout his learning years, Rockwood felt an entirely different calling than the one that expected him to carry forth the family's military tradition. Indeed, the humanitarian empathy in him exuded from the apex of his entire being; how, then, could a man who at one time trained to be a priest be expected to ignore the calling of blatant barbarity? Bibliography lists 7 sources.

Carter/”Just Be Nice”
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page essay that is in reaction to “Just Be Nice,” Stephen L. Carter, which is an essay that calls for a return to civility and argues that the “protection of constructive and polite public discourse is essential to public morality and the common good” (Davis 689). Roger Williams, the seventeenth century Puritan leader who founded the colony of Rhode Island, emphasized the need for civility, as he argued that the “’term’ civility’ stands for basic moral norms that citizens hold in common” and this is a stance in which Carter concurs (Davis 689). Therefore, rude, vulgar speech that accosts one’s fellow citizens for no apparent reason is more than simply bad manners. It is a direct attack on the foundations of society itself. This point is proven by examining the functions that civility serves in society, and also by looking at the innate power of language. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Case Study In Ethics: The Death Penalty
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. The ethical debate over the death penalty is one of the most hotly contested political and social topics of all time. When one considers such concepts as altruism, Utilitarianism, Kant's Categorical Imperative and positive/negative duties, it becomes quite clear that the ethical implications of capital punishment can certainly go either way. Leonard Pitts, Jr. attempts to place a modicum of understanding upon the oftentimes indefinable nature of ethics in "Fitting End to Death Penalty," providing an insightful glance from both sides of the issue. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Character Education in the Public Schools
[ send me this essay ]
A 13 page paper discussing the “dangerous” ground of including moral education in the public schools. Among those schools that have been most successful in achieving impressive academic gains has emerged a paradox: academic excellence does not emerge in an atmosphere void of personal responsibility and dedication to the work at hand. Nor does it thrive in the environment in which there is no cooperative effort or attention to helping peers. It seems that we had to abandon values in order to realize their relative worth. As public schools are called to accountability for results as never before, there is also much more attention to character education. Bibliography lists 14 sources.
