You will describe and critique two perspectives on morality. You will present your description and critique as a dialogue between two people, each of whom is a "true believer" in one of the two perspectives.
1. You will be writing about two perspectives. Choose one perspective from list A and one from list B.
List A (choose one)
Cultural Relativism
Divine Command
Kant's deontological theory
List B (choose one)
Social Contract theory
Utilitarianism
Ethics of Care
Virtue Theory
2. Create two characters. Each character is devoted to one of the two perspectives you've chosen. Imagine that these two "true believers" happen to meet and fall into a discussion of their respective philosophical views on morality.
3. In this dialog, your characters should present the following information
a. A clear summary of each moral perspective.
b. An example of how each perspective would apply to a simple moral problem, like lying. Don't use the exact same examples as in the book.
c. A description of the main problems or weaknesses with each perspective.
4. You should also explain what you find convincing and unconvincing about each of the theories, and offer your own overall assessment. (You can do this as a separate paragraph at the end of the dialog.)
