Logic of Appropriateness v. Logic of Consequences

An issue of TIME Magazine last month published a brief article called the "Morality Quiz." (Click the link to view the article online).

The quiz asks a series of questions that weigh whether the respondent would choose appropriateness over consequences-- take a look, and think about how you might respond to the various scenarios. We'll discuss some of these in section tomorrow, along with a review and debate about the three "isms."

Professor Nexon has included on the class blog some articles about Africa, but mostly about Kenya. I thought this was an interesting one about Zimbabwe.
