Ethics, law and morals are closely intertwined and guide our behaviour as to what we regard as right and wrong. Looking at the case study RN John had clearly broken the law due to stealing used equipment which is against hospital policies. From a moral perspective John thought he was doing the right thing, but stealing was evidently the wrong decision. He breached the concept of non-maleficence, which is “do not harm”, due to donating used equipment to a third world charity. The used dressing forceps and scissors may not have been properly sterilised and may still be contaminated. Therefore, by sending them to charity for reuse they may cause people to encounter infections. The writer however believes that even though John may have gone against…
I am writing to bring to your attention the unfair trial of Tom Robinson. I think we all knew that the jury would say that he was guilty of the crime, but was he really? I don’t think he was, and I hope you and the readers of The Maycomb Tribune will help me fight this injustice. Good people like Atticus Finch, tried to prove the innocence of Tom Robinson. The real criminals here are Mayella Ewell and Bob Ewell for taking a man’s life simply because he was colored. Remember it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.…
The author use ethos by claiming he is a utilitarian philosopher. He judges whether acts are wrong or right by their consequences. He further claimed, if the outcome of the American’s failure to donate the money, one more kid dies then there is a troubling incongruity in being quick to condemn other’s action like of Dora, who took a child to an organ peddler for cash. 4. Singer used logos by using information such reasonable estimates that $200 in donation would help a sickly 2-year-old into a healthy 6-year-old.…

So many people I know lack ambition, wisdom, and the strong desire to overcome the adversities they face and solemnly share with me and the public. I encounter and am told these personal moral dilemmas so much so that it feels as if I have been given a gift, that is of course that I am the one told, however, I feel cursed by my own disparities and troublesome childhood I was dealt, my empathy because of this is boundless, making myself one to listen and guide, I always guide.I want to judge and criticize, mock, and hate but i think of the old money way and Nick Carroway begins to muse me “Whenever you feel like criticizing any one,” he told me, “just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve…
Police officers are vital in our everyday lives because they’re known and serve as reliable forces that aid in protecting our rights and ultimately, our lives. Law enforcement, and police officers in particular, have secured a lot of media coverage recently because there have been multiple cases where through excessive force, police have fatally shot and killed civilians. While it may be known for police to do this if it is necessary and for their own safety, some specific stories have been globally exerted because of the unlawful reason behind the killing and verdict of the police officers at fault. In a book assessing criminal justice, Robert E. Worden believes that on a theoretical standpoint, there are situational factors that are the cues…

Human rights are not just about avoiding getting it wrong, they are an opportunity to make real improvements to people 's lives.” Rosie Winterton, Minister of State for Health Services (Equality and Human Rights, 2007)…
One, The nature/nurture problem fosters concerns over our aptitude to ensure that the change of genderized ethics really heads in the right path. There is also the preceding question of whether or not reform is even likely because our genderized viewpoints might actually echo innate differences rather than the effects of socialization. Two, Perhaps the utmost key challenge for care ethics is to reconcile the seemingly conflicting moral implications of caring and justice. Three, the significance of relationships in care ethics, finally, draws notice to the difficulties that arise as we attempt to extend the concept of relationships to support obligations toward distant inhabits and toward…

In our everyday lives we come across barriers, barriers of inequality, barriers of exclusion, barriers that prevent us from accomplishing our goals and ambitions. However, do we let these obstacles get in the way of our wants and desires or our basic rights and privileges? No, we do not. We work as individuals and together to encourage positive change in today’s society. People of the past and present have demanded equality and the right to be included in things rightfully owed to them, resulting in either an influential change that is usually beneficial or occasionally, a hindrance.…
