University of Strathclyde Glasgow The Social Contract Paper
What does the dialogue on justice reveal to us about this concept? Referencing Republic, provide a definition of justice in your own words and use it to evaluate whether the Noble Lie is just. Whether you find that the Noble Lie is just or not, you must defend your answer. Must the Noble Lie be this way to make society function? Do we have anything in our culture today like the Noble Lie?
Describe the concept of the social contract in full. Comparing and contrasting two of the social contract theorists, you must define and explain human nature, the state of nature, and the social contract according to each of them. How do we deal with private property in the contracts you choose to discuss? Who has the most convincing contract, to you? Using arguments based on the readings, defend your responses.
The paper must be a minimum of five (5) written pages of content, ( 1-inch margins; size 12 Times New Roman font).
You must cite the text, but you may not use any block quotes or excessive quotations.
It must include a works cited page at the end with proper citations (not included in the minimum page count). You may use Chicago, MLA, or APA—just be consistent and organized.
You can simply copy and paste the citations of these works from the syllabus, even if they’re not completely correct MLA or APA.
