Consequentialism The Trolley Case is an ethical thought experiment that seeks to find the “right” solution in killing people. This thought experiment explains that there is a train coming down the tracks on course to run right into five people. You stand next to a lever which can switch the tracks so that only one person will die. The only options you have are to do nothing and allow five people to die, or pull the lever so that only one person will die. In Trolley Case 2, you can save five people

Consider the following case: On Twin Earth, a brain in a vat is at the wheel of a runaway trolley. There are only two options that the brain can take: the right side of the fork in the track or the left side of the fork. There is no way in sight of derailing or stopping the trolley and the brain is aware of this, for the brain knows trolleys. The brain is causally hooked up to the trolley such that the brain can determine the course which the trolley will take. On the right side of the track there

To begin with, let’s take a look at the consequences of the first Trolley Case. Consequentialism states that each and every consequence (people, animals, and situations affected) must be considered, so the moral thing to do would be to pull the lever, directing the train toward Man A. Pulling the lever results in saving five lives, which outweighs one life. If each person involved is cared for by ten people, then fifty less people will be negatively affected by their death, versus the ten that would

about the trolley case that Judith Thompson came up with in 1976. December of 2008 until June of 2009 their was a test done to 145 subjects to see how they would respond to the two following trolley case's. The first one is labeled standard, and the second is push. These two different case's are to prove that although it is human nature to answer a question with the moral response you will notice if you change one variable

1 Explain the Trolley Driver, Bystander at the Switch, Fat Man, Transplant, & Hospital scenarios discussed in the "The Trolley Problem" reading. In doing so, address what the ethical issue(s) are in each of these scenarios. The trolley problem can be expanded to discuss a number of related ethical dilemmas, all referring to the conflicts inherent in utilitarianism and consequentialist ethics. The problem with the trolley driver scenario is that the driver is faced with a choice of whether to infringe

to morality The Trolley Driver, Transplant and Bystander at the Switch are different situations to approach and analyze questions of morality. Firstly, what is the difference between letting something happen and directly affecting an outcome? And what does morality require or forbid in each situation? To answer these questions, I will be using Jeremy Bentham’s approach of utilitarianism. The trolley driver problem simplified, is the idea that one is a trolley driver and you are about

What is and isn’t owned Thomson and the Trolley Problem Most people think that killing is worse than letting die. The latter is a fact. Throughout her essay, Thomson explores this idea and comes to the surprising conclusion that it is sometimes permissible to kill instead of letting die. This along with the famous Trolley Problem, first introduced by Philippa Foot, as well as a few other examples and variations, leave the reader with ambiguity on the subject: exactly under which circumstances is

judgements. There are two different kinds of reflective equilibrium: narrow reflective equilibrium, which is when one’s intuitive judgements concerning a rather restricted set of cases is rendered consistent with a set of general moral principles, where as wide reflective equilibrium is when one’s judgement concerning a wide range of cases, both actual and hypothetical, are rendered consistent with a set of general moral principles. This method is effective in ethics so that the data, or one’s intuitive judgements

The Trolley Problem is set up in two parts. The first part of this problem puts the reader in a passive position to choose between shoving a large person onto the track causing one person to die to save the five other people and refraining and doing nothing would allow the five to die and the one person to live. The second part of this scenario would put Frank in a very personal position to choose to do something about the situation at hand, or to let five people die; or deliberately push a large
