Discovering Worlds Past and Present
After watching the first episode of Breaking Bad and thinking of the study we have done in class, read stimulus material below and write a reflection on the following prompt: “Could Walter White’s decisions be justified, and what are the likely consequences of his initial step into deceit?”
As you write, answer a few questions: should he have done it, why (or under what circumstances would it be) justified, and is he a sympathetic character?
In your response, you should use one of the philosophers/philosophies we have in looked at in class, refer to your own decision making preferences, and integrate (using embedded citations) text from the article.
