Case Studies in Development Ethics: Affirming Integral Social and Economic Development in Design and Impact Individual research proposals for the evaluative paper within your topic ought to be neither so broad as to be unresolvable within the parameters of the assignment (e.g. ethics of free markets in the globalized world), nor irrelevant in today’s society (e.g. “Whether the Comintern, or the Third International, was successful in promoting income equality in areas of its activities.”). Topics can either investigate the ethics of a particular economic policy or exemplary case in recent history or can look at a specific component or aspect of a larger topic in development ethics.   You must accomplish the following tasks: Briefly present the relevant historical, social, and political circumstances out of which this development challenge arose. Explain why it is a topic of disagreement regarding policy responses to it and what the primary arguments of two or more positions are. Be sure to provide significant empirical research and facts, citing the sources for these data. Using sources from the course and your own research, evaluate the policy positions offered in Section A from the perspective of integral human development. Craft an ethical argument for the policies using philosophers, the Catholic Church’s social tradition (e.g. encyclicals), and representative economists who adhere to the integral framework. Explain which teachings are most relevant and how they apply to this case or issue. Cite from at least one documentary source of Catholic social doctrine (e.g. www.vatican.va, www.usccb.org) and at least two (2) philosophers (e.g. Averroes, Aristotle, Nussbaum, Sen, John Locke, Jacques Maritain; use journals like the Journal of Global Ethics: https://www.tandfonline.com/toc/rjge20/current). Present at least one alternative ethical framework for evaluating the policy proposals in Section A that either directly critique the integral approach in Section B and/or represent an alternative foundational position. Note the points of agreement and disagreement between these and the integral approach, explaining why their conclusions differ with respect to this issue. Cite at least two (2) critical authorities. Critically analyze all the positions presented in Sections B and C, assessing their strong and weak points. Present your personal position on the issue at hand, constructively building a well-reasoned and convincing argument for this commitment. Note questions for further investigation and evidence that might clarify the social and economic issue in development and help to resolve the ethical conflict therein.
