Short writing assignment -- week 8
due by email at 5pm on Friday, Oct. 23
This week, I’m asking you to tackle a huge question: what is the relationship between globalization and morality or ethics? In an answer of the standard length, please think through how you understand the moral valences and implications of the global processes we’ve been discussing. Is globalization a moral or ethical dynamic? How does morality enter in? Should it? Can it?
If you’re having difficulty constructing an answer, I suggest you begin by thinking about moments so far this semester in which something we’ve read, watched, or discussed made you feel uncomfortable. What was uncomfortable and why?
