Social Contract Paper

Write a two-page paper answering this question: “What are some of the key underlying assumptions of social contract ethics?”

The documents “Writing an Ethics Paper” and the “Turnitin Reference Guide” in the “Course Resources” folder on the course’s main page may be helpful. Papers should

include a title page and reference page. Abstracts are not necessary.

Use at least two pieces of information from this week’s textbook reading(s) to support your argument. You have an option to supplement your paper with additional

material if needed, which must be from scholarly sources (i.e., peer-reviewed journal articles, books, etc.). Wikipedia is not a credible source. The paper should be a

minimum of two full pages.
