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.
