Review of research proposal and need to complete section 3.8 3.12 and 3.13 about a paragraph or so needed for each section.

For this first assignment, you will compose a paper researched essay that explains a current trend in your field. You should not merely summarize or tell me what you already know about the field but rather use this as an opportunity to research and find out something new about what is happening in your field at the present moment. Topics can range from developments in technology to new regulations or standards.
Papers should be informative but written so that a general audience may understand the material. Writing for a targeted audience is an important requirement for this assignment. One of your goals then should be to present the information in such a way that someone outside of your field can still understand the points you’re trying to make. In writing about and for a technological field, it is imperative that you try to avoid jargon or confusing, esoteric, language that would make you lose your audience, instead of grasping and maintaining their attention. For this reason, you might need to pace your discussions in such a way that you can take the time to fully explain or break down various concepts that may be virtually unknown or confusing for someone reading your paper.

Textbook (Required): Ethical Issues in Business, Eighth Edition, 2008 Thomas Donaldson & Patricia H. Werhane, Pearson Prentice Hall
Read: Gustafson p. 78; McVea p. 89
Case Write-up: Italian Tax Mores p. 54
Following is how a case write-up is organized:
I. History, circumstances, possible ethical issues. (I really don’t grade this part of the paper…so feel free to make it short, but it may help you organize your thoughts on what is happening, or has happened, in the case). Be sure to identify the ethical issue(s). In some cases, a decision is left hanging in a case. Your job is to identify the ethical issues and options of every player or position in the case.
The Ethical Model:
II. Absolutes (the first ethical test). This should never include items that are “relatives”, such as “It is wrong to quench the human condition” (what in the world does that mean?). Keep a list of absolutes…the things you view as always right or wrong, such as: Murder, lying, bribery, etc. These are a few of my personal absolutes. By defining them as absolutes, we recognize that they never change. (Note: Absolutes are usually one or two words). Always define your terms. Murder is the taking of an innocent life (thus, self defense is not murder). Be very careful in selecting and defining your absolutes.
III. Legal (the second ethical test). In this situation, you simply ask (and answer the question): Is this act, or my proposed solution, legal?
IV. Moral Philosophies (these are essentially relativistic by definition) (Use all tests applying the philosophies):
A. Teleological (outcome): What are the possible outcomes or what was done or could be done? Are those outcomes good or bad, and for whom?
B. Utilitarian (a subset of the teleological): Is the expected outcome the most good for the most people?
C. Egoistic (not “egotistic”; egoism is a subset of utilitarian ethics): Is the act or proposed action good for the individual actor/decision-maker? This may not apply in all cases, since it is based on personal (selfish) motives. Be careful. Stealing may appear to be good, but in the long run, is not good for an individual who does not get to keep what they stole and spends time in prison.
D. Deontological (Duty or Intent): Rights create duties, which in many cases can point back to absolutes. Under a traditional view of natural law there are three absolute rights that people have:
1. Right to Life (unless they give up that right by trying to murder another)
2. Right to Liberty
3. Right to own property
In some cases, you will find that there are life issues in the cases. For example, if someone takes an action that could disable or kill another, that is a “life issue.” In that case, the Deontological test pushes you back into an absolute.
E. Public Relations: This test simply asks whether or not the act, or your solution would be good for the public image of the firm.
F. Reasonable Person Test: If all of our other tests do not lead us to a solution, we may be required to simply ask, “What would a reasonable person do?”
V. Conclusions – What are your conclusions from your analysis of the case?

A) INTRODUCE YOUR TOPIC
B) RATIONALIZE YOUR CHOICE BY IDENTIFYING 3 KEY PROFESSIONAL ISSUES RELATED TO THE AREA.
C) LINK TO A KEY PIECE OF RESEARCH WITHIN THE AREA.

YOU SHOULD INCLUDE EVIDENCE THE FOLLOWING ELEMENTS:
A) CONTAIN EVIDENCE OF CURRENT THINKING RELATED TO CONTEMPORARY LITERATURE.
B)INCLUDING AN ANALYSIS OF CUTTING EDGE APPROACHES RELATED TO THE SPECIALTY.
C) FROM THIS ANALYSIS OF CURRENT RESEARCH AND EVIDENCE MAKE RECOMMENDATION FOR DEVELOPING NOVEL AND INNOVATIVE WORKING WITHIN THE FIELD.
D) LINKS TO CAREER AND PROFESSIONAL ASPECTS OF ROLE DEVELOPMENT.
E) USE THE HARVARD SYSTEM OF REFERENCING TO ACKNOWLEDGE ALL SOURCES , AT LIST 30TO 35 REFERENCES LIST. UP TO DATE INFORMATION
