Test questions practice

# 1:
Political

Political philosophy is the study of human social organization and of the nature of man/woman in society. Are the problems of society owing mostly to man's fallen nature, to bad social organization and management, or to something else?  Choose 2 different philosophers who would support your point of view and outline what they would say.  Include one societal link that demonstrates your point of view.


#2
Social


A principle question for social philosophy is:

Who gets what????

This matter is known as DISTRIBUTIVE JUSTICE.  Just how are the goods and services within any society to be distributed?   In any society no matter how small (an island society) or how large (the People’s Republic of China) there will arise the question of how goods and services are to be distributed.  Whether people will be free to work and keep what they earn or whether all must contribute in some way to the welfare of others, particularly those not capable of working and caring for themselves.  Choose 2 different philosophers who would support your point of view and outline what they would say.  Include one societal link that demonstrates your point of view.
