CA Blogging Assignment 2

At first, I said that I will focus on the relationship between justice and ethnicity, and how these two are related to the way people think. However, considering the amount of time left for us to complete the assignment, I thought the topic I have stated earlier would be too broad and therefore, impossible to complete it on time. So, I have narrowed down my essay topic and revised my thesis statement as follows: America seems to be thinking that what they are doing to the other countries for instance Afghanistan is the right thing and good for its people of that country. However, looking at the circumstance, it is not exact to say that the actions of America against the other countries are a true justice.

And my three main supporting ideas for this essay would be as follows…….

My first supporting idea would be that countries like Iraq, although they have been receiving the aids from US, are still under disorder and what is making it worse is that not only American soldiers are being killed, but the citizens of that country also.

My second supporting idea would be the tragedy of 9/11 that has happened almost ten years ago at US. If the Islamic people were really appreciating the aids from US, would they have done such a thing?

My third supporting idea would be that with over six billion of people living in this world, a belief of justice a single race is holding would not be the justice for all the others. In other words, the justice for US does not make the justice for the world.

Using the three main supporting ideas above, I would like to claim that what is being called an American justice might be a justice for some part, but that does not make it justice for all the others.

CA Blogging Assignment #1

My first essay topic for this term is the relationship between ethnicity and justice. The topic seems too vague, so to make it more simple, I would like to do my research on how each country's religious belief affects their way of thinking justice. The reason that I chose this particular topic is because of our summer reading P&D which we had almost a week ago. There was this one person in my group who had a discussion question which had to do with justice. We hear the word "justice" many times in our life for instance the well-known Professor Michael J. Sandel has written a book called "JUSTICE: Whats the right thing to do?". But have we took our time to think for ourselves whats the true meaning of the word "justice"? To tell the truth, I haven't. I had all these 19 years of my life, and had never thought of it. So I thought, since I had never took my time to think deeply about justice, why not use this precious time to think and tie it up with one of our semester topic, which would be ethnicity.
My thesis statement for this essay is "Each country thinks their own belief (=justice) is the right thing, and the others are wrong, but actually, there is no wrong justice in our world, and every other belief (=justice) is as faithful as the others".
