Libertarians reject Utilitarianism’s concerns for the total social well-being. While utilitarians are willing to restrict the liberty of some for the greater good, libertarians believe that justice consists solely of respect for individual property. If an individual isn’t doing something that interferes with anyone else’s liberty, then no person, group, or government should disturb he or she from living life as desired (not even if doing so would maximize social happiness). They completely disregard

They would argue that the only true way to serve justice is to kill the killer. However, we should be better than the killer and not equally bad. By finding justice in death, we lower ourselves to become as bad criminals, the good guy should say ‘’I am better than this and I stand above this puny criminal’’. In Romeo and Juliet, Romeo got to a very deep low

"The state approves your caution, the gods my courage." Antigone angrily flung these words at her sister Ismene before she defied the law and buried her brother, Polynices, who had been killed fighting against Thebes. After their father Oedipus fled Thebes, his two sons were to rule jointly. One son, Eteocles claimed the throne as his own and would not yield to his brother, Polynices. Polynices gathered seven armies and attacked Thebes. In the midst of the battle both brothers fell, and Creon, their

(Inequality in Education and Employment) was a particularly salient topic for me. As part of my Bachelor’s degree, in Philosophy, I was required to present and defend a thesis. My thesis was a defense of democracy from the problems of distributive justice. Over the course of two years, I spent countless hours reading, writing, and debating the fine points on inequality.

The right to a trial by jury is a core element of the United States Criminal Justice System. This right is guaranteed to all citizens by the highest law of the land: The United States Constitution. But are juries truly an effective means of securing justice? The movie 12 Angry Men provides commentary on this question with its portrayal of twelve jurors deliberating over a murder case.

understanding of justice.

In order to implement this form of justice one must differentiate friends and enemies. In addition our assessment of friends and enemies, will largely be based on our various, but equally bias opinions of what good or bad entails. Polomarchus’s understanding of justice doesn’t allow enemies

Throughout The Republic, Plato tries to paint a picture of a just man and an unjust man. Socrates is constantly challenged at both ends of the topic.
