☆Day 3 Homework
Sub Textbook 2022年度 Questions: 1. How
do you understand Dr. Sandel’s idea of the common good? 2. Is there anything problematic with the
Mahood Rab “success story”? 3. Is there
any problem with just emphasizing the ethos of individualistic merit, hard
work, and competition in society?
Hints for Points: 1. We need to
build a mature society of compassion, where the winner acknowledges their luck
and pay respect to those who are less advantaged. 2. The story attributes Mahood Rab’s success
only to his hard work and misses the insight into his fortune such as his
talent to make money or taking up a right job at a right time. This makes a
false image that only people who make money deserve respect and losers can be
left abandoned. 3. It will dehumanize
everyone and degrade the humanity.
