They are two different strategies which attempt to identify what morality is really about by outlining the different values of what makes a good and ethical person.…

The world of normative ethics took hold of me during my high school career. It came out of nowhere, an interest I never would have expected myself to have, but by my senior year it was one of my favorite subjects to independently explore. My interest in normative ethics began during my freshman year of high school. When I entered high school, I lacked a particular interest in an academic or extracurricular activity. I had taken part in some speech competitions and debates during middle school…

In this way, The Art of War is undeniably a successful battle book, and Sun Tzu a talented…

his family, I would say the stress was from an internal source, as the events came from inside the family. Even though his family noted throughout the video that Jeff was not himself, I believe the suicide was a catastrophic event, it was a non-normative stress event that wasn’t predicted (Boss, 2001). I also believe that the event was ambiguous, as one of his friends stated, “I feel guilty because I should have picked up on some signals”, which shows facts were unclear. The event was also…
