In the paper, you have three main tasks:
First, articulate the normative theory of your choice. (What does that theory say about what is morally permissible/impermissible, etc.)
Second, apply it to one of the applied issues we looked at in the beginning of the course. (For example, explain what a consequentialist might say about abortion, or poverty, etc.)
Third, critically evaluate the normative theory you have chosen. Present an argument for or against it.
