Freedom and Restraint
[ send me this paper ]
(5 pp) Defining what we cannot see, but rather
hold in our minds is not an easy thing to do,
rather it involves a series of steps in thinking,
and with each of those steps a new conclusion may
be reached. We will use this very simple process
to examine the ideas of freedom and restraint,
as well as their relationship to each other, and
to the concept of rules and regulations.

Hans Jonas’ Restructuring of Kant’s Ethical Categorical Imperative in the Age of Technology
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing Jonas’ restructuring of Kant’s categorical imperative in regards to ethically responsible decisions and actions. In the 18th and 19th centuries, philosophers such as Immanual Kant were interested in “the supreme moral principle” which would govern individual action and decision making in society, religion and politics. Kant in his work “Foundations of the Metaphysics of Morals” developed the categorical imperative which stated “Act so that you can will that the maxim of your action be made the principle of universal law”. This reasoning reflected that individuals “ought” to act in relation to their moral duty and not out of self interest for the good of humanity and society. Since the advent of modern global technology however, contemporary philosophers argue that this categorical imperative falls short of preserving humanity. Hans Jonas in particular argues that Kant’s categorical imperative does not reflect the responsibility needed in present actions in order to preserve not only present generations but also future generations. Technology has such a global impact on all of humanity and the environment that decisions made today must have an imperative of responsibility for the future of humanity.

Harvard Case: Export Of Pesticides
[ send me this paper ]
This 5 page paper is based on a Harvard case study about exporting pesticides from the U.S. to developing countries. It is a paper that deals with ethics and morality. Sections include a synopsis of the scenario, the environment, the issues involved in the case, alternatives, recommendations and conclusions. This is not as clear-cut a case as it might seem. Fields that are treated will produce about 40 percent more crop than untreated fields.

Hobbes, Aquinas And Plato: The Role Of Morality In
Establishing An Obligation To Obey Law
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Ever since the time when mankind
required the inclusion of law as a means by which to settle disputes and create a more agreeable community, the issue of legal infiltration has been the subject of myriad dissatisfied individuals who believe that the implementation of law has been significantly more detrimental than beneficial. Others, however, contend that without the presence of law, human morality would not stand on its own
as a deterrent to crime and otherwise unwanted social behavior. Thomas Hobbes, St. Thomas Aquinas and Plato postulated the issues surrounding the role of morality in establishing an obligation to obey law; from these three men, one can readily surmise that law most certainly has a place within society's civil framework.
