Using Utilitarianism (Act and Rule) or Kantian Deontology (CI and Formula of humanity version) or The Ethics of Care, critically discuss the moral appropriateness of performing female genital cutting on Hannah Koroma. (Here's a citation in APA to use for the case study:

Widdows, Heather, (2011). Global Ethics: An Introduction. Durham, (UK): Acumen Press.)

Some notes about style:

paper should have two clear parts. should spend about a page (or more) outlining the theory identifying and explaining core themes, ideas, strengths and weaknesses. The second part is the application of the theory to the case. spend about two (or more pages) showing that the theory you consider provides a response (s) to the issues in the case. application should tell the reader what the person (s) should have done, where mistakes in actions occurred, who's interests were taken into account well or poorly; and/or whether and how basic interests were floated.

1. This is a critical paper. You are to offer a thesis and offer support for that thesis
2. Given the above, be sure your paper has a thesis statement - some statement of what you will argue.
3. This is not a research paper and the assignment is meant to be written without the aid of secondary sources
4. Use the APA referencing style for your paper.
