1.What do you think are the correct principles of justice? •State them and offer an argument in their support. Make it clear what these principles regulate (for example,the distribution of what?).•Defend these principles against ONEobjection a philosopher we’ve studied in the course could make.(Note: you will need to commit to theviewyouarticulateinthis section for the rest ofthe essay—this is what justice is according to you. You may side with an existing view, offer asynthesis of different views, or propose anoriginal view).
2.Relying on your principles of justice, analyse a social injustice in Australia or a country of your choice. •What does the injustice consist in? (how are your principles violated and by what structures?)•What institutional change would address the injusticeand how?
3.Drawing on the course content, discuss civil disobedience ORdemocratic process (choose one ORthe other) as a means to bringing about the institutional change you proposed in (2).•Do you think it(civil disobedienceor democratic process)would succeed/failin bringing aboutthe required change? Explain how and why. •If you’re talking about civil disobedience, explain why it’s morally permissible/impermissible in this specific case.
4.In light of the above, what are YOU morally requiredto do about the injustice in question and why? (discuss oneactivity/action,drawing on the course content).•Explain the moral grounds for this duty. Assume you’re a citizenlivingin the country of the injustice.For example, you could talk about how and whyyou ought toparticipate in the democratic process or civildisobediencediscussed in (3), or perhaps why you should do something else(including nothing)instead.
