Plagiarism: Since this is a very short essay, you should not rely on any external sources. But if you do use any material from other sources, be certain to cite your sources, or you will be subject to the penalties for plagiarism. Any standard method of citation (MLA, Chicago, APA, etc) is acceptable. If I find that you have plagiarized, you will receive a failing grade on the assignment.
Paper Topic: Your task for this paper is to explain and evaluate the moral theory of Ethical Relativism (as discussed in class and in the text). In your discussion, your paper should address the following sorts of questions questions: What does Ethical Relativism say about the relationship between Culture/Society and Ethical Truths? What are some considerations in favor of Ethical Relativism? What are some objections to Ethical Relativism? Explain in detail. Ultimately, do you think that Ethical Relativism is the right ethical theory, or do you find it plausible? Explain why or why not, supporting your view with reasons.
Paper Writing Guidelines (or how to write a successful paper)
1) Make sure that your paper has a clear opening thesis paragraph, which contains a clear statement of the position you will be arguing for. You need to make it known from the outset what your paper is about; this will help give the paper a clear structure. For example, if you are arguing that Ethical Relativism is a sound moral theory, then you need to make that known in the first paragraph. Each subsequent paragraph in your paper should ultimately be working towards defending your central thesis.
2) Try to make sure each paragraph is built around a single central idea. For example, one paragraph might be dedicated to explaining a problem with ethical relativism, and the next paragraph might explore ways to respond to that problem. Don’t jam a bunch of different, unconnected ideas into a single paragraph; this makes your paper unclear and unfocused.
3) Don’t try to be impressive by being too wordy! Using complex and obscure vocabulary that you do not understand does not make for a better paper. Instead, choose clear wording that effectively conveys the ideas that you are trying to express.
4) Pay attention to the grammar and mechanical structure of your paper. Your paper does not necessarily need to be grammatically perfect, but it should definitely be free of errors that obscure the content of your paper.
5) Make sure you spend time examining possible arguments against your position. You have not successfully argued for your position if you ignore all of the arguments against your position
6) Pretend that your audience is unfamiliar with the material you are writing about. Don’t leave details out because you know that I know them – one of the points of writing this paper is to show me what YOU know. Writing in this way will help you to explain your ideas clearly and in sufficient detail.
