Questions And Topics We Can Help You To Answer

Choose either utilitarian or deontological ethical theory to apply to the ethical question.

Explain the core principles of that theory.

•Demonstrate how the principles of the theory support a certain position on that question.

•Articulate a relevant objection to the theory on the basis of that argument.

Write a five paragraph essay that conforms to the requirements below.

Introduction
The introduction should be one paragraph, no more than 120 words. This should clearly delimit the ethical problem or question under consideration, and define the essential issues.  The last sentence of the introduction should briefly summarize the conclusion or position on this issue that you think is best supported by this theory, and succinctly state what the objection will be.

Body Paragraphs
Each paragraph in the body should start with a topic sentence that clearly identifies the main idea of the paragraph. Each paragraph should have at least four sentences.

A. Theory explanation:
This should be approximately 150 to 200 words explaining the core principles or features of the deontological or utilitarian theory and the general account of moral behavior it provides. 

B. Application:
This should be approximately 150 to 200 words, and should address how the principles or features of the deontological or utilitarian theory apply to the problem or question under consideration and identify the specific moral conclusion that results from that application. ◾Your application should clearly show how the conclusion follows from the main tenets of the theory as addressed in the previous paragraph.

C. Objection:
This should be approximately 150 to 200 words raising a relevant objection to the argument expressed in part "b." A relevant objection is one that exposes a weakness in the theory as it applies to your problem, and so you should explain how it brings out this weakness.

Conclusion
The conclusion should be one paragraph, no more than 150 words. The conclusion should very briefly summarize the main points of your essay and must contain a paraphrased restatement of your thesis.

Hi, I need help with a quiz and the quiz consists of two short essay questions that ask you about the relationship between Kant’s ethics and the ethics implied by the director of Crimes and Misdemeanors, Woody Allen. (Hint: Pay special attention to the end of the film, as this gives a very big clue into what Allen thinks about ethics.)

This quiz concerns the relationship between the film, Crimes and Misdemeanors and the ethics of Immanuel Kant, as laid out in the Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals. Please answer the following questions as completely as possible after you have viewed the film.

The film link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kW5y7RM4BuE&ab_channel=MovieRoom

Please read the attached file and watch the film in order to answer these two questions.

Make sure to answer these two questions individually (each question in a short essay)

Here are the questions:

Question 1: 

Nearly every Kantian duty was broken in the course of this film. Choose TWO such duties that were broken and do the following for each:

a. Explain which characters were in each situation
b. Explain Kant’s conception of this duty
c. Give Kant’s conception of the consequence of this duty
d. Explain the result of breaking this duty in the film

Question 2:

Like Kant, Woody Allen (the director of this film) wants to talk about morals in the absence of god, but the two come to opposite conclusions about how we ought to decide to act. What are these conclusions? Which do you side with? Why?
