Task <\/p>\n

 <\/div>\n
As a formal essay (a written argument stating a position) you are to respond to the question: <\/div>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153How do ethics influence the trading of some values over others in the pursuit of a secure society?<\/div>\n

Maslow\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s hierarchy of needs embodies security with safety needs as second only after <\/div>\n
biological necessities. As a need, security has been expressed as a value (Wolfers, 1952), and <\/div>\n
defined as those things which are important to us. However, people hold many values. <\/div>\n
Therefore, values must be traded according to hierarchical or conflicting priorities. Baldwin <\/div>\n
put forth a hierarchical model of values (Prime value, Core value, Marginal value) to facilitate <\/div>\n
social trade-offs against the various values that enable society to flourish.  <\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
In the pursuit of value trade-offs, the concepts of ethics and social contract should also be <\/div>\n
considered. Ethics are the moral principles guiding individual\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s and group\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s behaviour when <\/div>\n
pursuing or conducting activities towards goals. Social contract is the view that people must <\/div>\n
give up certain liberties for society to be secure and flourish. Consequently, values, the pursuit <\/div>\n
and maintenance of security within a social contract framework and ethics are entwined.<\/div>\n
