Ethics Bowl
Ethics bowl is the oddest gem, really, hard to believe it has been hidden in the midst of this university I attend for five whole years and I never noticed.
We argue what is morally right, based upon a variety of factors, among them the rights of the individuals involved (whether natural rights or state granted rights) and a number of other factors, making a suggestion pertaining to the case based on the moral issue at hand.
Its like.....cultural deconstruction, or reverse engineering for cultural thought....I am almost giddy with the result of reading through a plethora of cases from the past few years, along with their answers.
Could I do this for a living please?
The only hard part is deciding which case to pick and take under my wing...the three in my stack are on on fair trade and the balance of indigenous support versus bottom lines, one on the Buddhas of Bamiyan (statues demolished by the Taleban) and cultural preservation, and one on the unpaid cost of women's work in relation to GDP.
*dies* I like them all.
