Rawl’s Veil of Ignorance and Moral Luck

12600This week you assessed the moral theory of John Rawls, that focused on preserving impartiality while making moral decisions and the impact of luck on moral responsibility. Keep this in mind as you answer the following questions. Remember, you must demonstrate a good understanding of the reading, and as this is a 300 course, you must paraphrase your source(s) with in-text citations while refraining from direct quoting. Let’s jump in!

1)Describe the difference between “Normative ethics” and “Applied Ethics.”
2)Explain what is meant by the “original position” and the “veil of ignorance” from Rawls and how they apply to justice.
3)Should we ensure that moral judgments do not factor in moral luck? Why?
4)How can the tools of the “original position” and “veil of ignorance” help you in your nursing field?
5)Pose a question to the class related to the weekly material.
