Description

In 2-3 pages write an essay. Consider the housing development plans for Dharavi. Pretend you are now Plato's Philosopher King or biblically the wise King Solomon. It is your job to make a determination for the fate of Dharavi. Do you allow for the housing towers to be built and for the slums to be destroyed? Try to be realistic in your response. If you want to keep the slum but make improvements within it, consider there will be an expense which must be paid and an unhappy investor who wants to make a lot of money on that land. If you destroy the slum, you will need to find places for all of these people or they will end up homeless in the streets of Mumbai. We are not pretending to be a genie in a lamp but a leader.

In addition, please do not use the little space you have to summarize the documentary for me. I've seen it. Use examples specifically and quotes when possible.

  • Virtue Ethics
  • Utilitarianism
  • Deontology (Kant)
  • Rights Theory
  • Ethics of Care
  • Egoism
  • Natural Ethics
