Social Justice & Jesuit Values Position Paper

Write a position paper in which you do the following:

First, in your opening paragraph provide a brief overview of the social justice issue you chose. In this same paragraph, provide a solution to the issue in the form of a moral claim. When you are making your moral claim, try to refer to one of the ethical theories we read about last week. Your introduction should be concise and dedicated to giving the reader just enough information to convey the issue and indicate the relevance of your moral claim.

In the body of your paper incorporate several political philosophers and/or ethical theories to support your moral claim. Explain how each of these political or ethical theories supports your position. As you move further into the body of your paper, give as many specific details as you can in support of your claim.

Next, present a counterargument in which you anticipate and respond to criticisms of your position. You can choose an opposing ethical theory, if you wish.

Lastly, discuss how your chosen Jesuit value informs and supports your claim. Indicate why this Value sheds unique light on the question at hand. Do you see any relationship between the Jesuit Value you have chosen and the political theory you’ve been exploring? If so, say how.

Now write a brief conclusion in which you recount your social justice issue and the solution you proposed. You’ve already made your case; your conclusion simply closes the circle.
