AP Class -- Moral Dilemmas passage assignment

After reading the passage, which is based off of the Justice lecture video I showed in class last Friday, answer the following:

1. What is your definition of justice?  Be as detailed as possible.

2. In your opinion, what is more important, individual rights or the common good?  Explain your answer.

3. Do you agree or disagree that for moral reflection there needs to be a discussion with "an interlocutor" or not?

4. Pick one of the following people: Aristotle, Immanuel Kant, John Stuart Mills, or John Rawls and write down two facts about them.

5. The passage brings up several major topics (example: income inequality, affirmative action, same-sex marriage, etc.).  Select a topic from the article that you would be interested in researching more about and write it down.

Bring you passage and answers to class on Thursday, October 20th.
