PHIL 2600 Discussion 6 | Tulane University
9/23 ^ 9/25 discussion board
We will cover Richard Arneson’s article “What is Wrongful Discrimination?” on 9/23 and 9/25.
1) Suppose
residential segregation occurs and is explainable in the way that Schelling
describes (775-777). Has any kind of wrongful discrimination occurred? Are the
actions of any individual people morally wrong? Should the state step
in and try and fix any disparate harms that might occur as a result of
there being such segregated neighborhoods? Closed to new posts as we
covered this question in class.
2) How does
Arenson define wrongful discrimination? How is this different from “innocent”
or perhaps “non-wrongful" kinds of discrimination?
3) Explain the
donut shop counterexamples (784-785).
4) Some of the
policy suggestions (see, A. Age and B. Sex) Arenson gives are, although
discriminatory, aimed at achieving fairness. Are they
fair?
