  • paper 1 – Justice: A Third Way?

    In Republic, Socrates and Thrasymachus represent two opposed views of justice: a transcendent Ideal (eidosobjective, ahistorical, independent of all context) versus “nothing other than the advantage of the stronger” (totally situated in relations of power). Must we choose between these options, or is there a third possibility?

    Putting Republic into conversation with one of the followingApology-Crito, Antigone, or The Peloponnesian Warconsider whether your chosen text offers an alternative conception of justice: one that is neither transcendent nor reducible to power, but constituted through political relationships and practice. If you find such a third way, articulate what it is and how it differs from both Thrasymachus and Socrates. If you conclude that the options in Republic exhaust the possibilities, explain why the apparent alternative in your chosen text ultimately collapses into one of those positions. : Write an essay of about 1800-2000 words, double-spaced in 12-point font, addressing one of the following topics. Your essay must contain a clearly identifiable argument that explicitly answers all parts of one of these questions and is supported by plausible interpretation of lots of duly cited evidence from the text. The most important part of your argument should be stated concisely and compellingly in the last sentence of your first paragraph. Your task is to persuade a skeptical friend to agree with your interpretation.

    As you’ll see, the prompts are complex. You’ll be discouraged if you expect yourself to grasp them immediately. Instead, you’ll need to study them, sit with them, grapple with them, and out of that process, begin your writing about the one that compels you most. They are designed to lead you toward more profound engagement with the material rather than to gratify our desires that things be easy, transparent, and quick.

    Identify which topic youre addressing by retyping the question, single-spaced in 10-point font, before the first paragraph of your paper. Be sure to give your paper a meaningful title. We recommend that you avoid starting your essay with a dictionary definition or phrase like Throughout human history or Since the dawn of time….

    You should convincingly present a counterargument in the second paragraph of your paper (required). How could a thoughtful and informed person reasonably disagree with your argument? What evidence would they present for their point of view? If you find it difficult to imagine how someone could disagree with you, you may be over-convinced of your argument and/or embarking on an obvious or trivial argument.

    Understanding what I want out of life has encouraged me to approach my internship experience with intention and purpose, recognizing that each experience contributes to my development as a future human services professional. At this point, I have collected 21 hours and 40 minutes of internship experience, not including todays hours. These initial hours have allowed me to become familiar with the agency environment, expectations, and daily operations while beginning to apply skills learned in the classroom.

    I received supervision on my first day at the internship site, which focused primarily on orientation, role clarification, and reviewing expectations, policies, and ethical guidelines. Since that initial day, I have not had additional formal supervision, although I anticipate that more structured supervision will occur as I continue to gain experience and take on additional responsibilities. The initial supervision was helpful in establishing professional boundaries and providing a foundation for ethical and appropriate conduct. Within the organization, I have identified several key roles that support my learning and contribute to effective service delivery, including my site supervisor, case managers, counselors, intake staff, medical staff, outreach staff, and administrative personnel. Observing how these professionals collaborate has helped me better understand the agencys structure and how interdisciplinary teamwork supports comprehensive client care.

    One human services task I perform well without much conscious effort is active listening and demonstrating empathy, as building rapport and making others feel heard comes naturally to me. In contrast, documentation remains a task I find consistently challenging, particularly completing accurate and detailed case notes. I also tend to avoid tasks that involve confrontation or delivering difficult information because these situations feel emotionally uncomfortable, even though I understand their importance in professional practice. Feedback I often receive in both academic and professional settings is that I need to be more confident and assertive, which can be difficult to hear but has helped me identify an important area for growth.

    To further prepare for my career in human services, I plan to gain additional experiences at my internship site, including participating in intake interviews, assisting with case planning, and observing interdisciplinary team meetings. To improve a weakness at my internship, such as documentation, I plan to review examples of effective case notes and request feedback from my supervisor. Academically, I will work on building confidence by preparing thoroughly for assignments and discussions. When ethical dilemmas arise, I will rely on an ethical decision-making model that includes identifying the ethical issue, reviewing relevant ethical codes and laws, consulting with supervisors or colleagues, considering possible courses of action and their consequences, selecting and implementing the most ethical option, and evaluating the outcome to guide future practice.

    Sexual orientation is shaped in meaningful ways by social conditions, especially culture and religious norms. Chapter 5 mentions how stigma tied to sexual orientation often shows up as long-term, ongoing stress that gradually affects individuals well-being and how they experience relationships, sense of safety and personal expression, rather than standalone acts of discrimination (Miville et al., 2024). This aligns closely with my own experience of being in a lesbian relationship for seventeen years. My previous partner and I both grew up in Knoxville, Tennessee, we experienced ongoing pressure rooted in Christian values, which required us to constantly be mindful of our behavior and identity in daily settings. Deciding to move to South Florida offered us an opportunity to live in a place with more social acceptance of our lifestyle and gave us the freedom we craved, yet it also showed how deep our internalized stress really was even when we were in more accepting environments. Chapter 5 highlights how important and useful these experiences are when it comes to counseling practice because they affect the trust, coping strategies, and relational dynamics you have with clients.

    Challenges typically arise when human service professionals rely on personal societal norms regarding gender and sexual orientation instead of their clients understanding. These stereotypes often lead human service professionals to unintentionally treat normal coping responses as problems, minimize stress related triggers, or reinforce heteronormative structures that do not reflect lived realities (Miville et al., 2024). Such as relocation is the best option for someone to be in a more socially accepting environment automatically resolving stress but ignores the long-term impact of growing up in stigmatizing settings. After transitioning from Knoxville, Tennessee to South Florida, I experienced a lot more acceptance but still battled internal pressure from decades of religious and cultural scrutiny. Chapter 5 highlights how professionals must be involved in self-reflection and cultural humility to prevent the influence of bias on clinical judgment.

    Human service professionals hold ethical obligation to validate and respect clients whose sexual orientation and gender identity fall outside of dominant societal norms. Ethical practices require honoring your clients autonomy, avoiding harm, and actively confronting oppressive systems that harm well-being (Miville et al., 2024). For example, human service professionals must ensure that language, documentation, and assessments reflect the clients self-identified experiences instead of placing labels on them. In my personal experience, feeling heard and validated without correction had a significant impact on my sense of emotional safety and trust. Chapter 5 explains that ethical care goes beyond neutrality and requires advocacy, informed consent, and understanding the impact of how systemic discrimination affects mental health.
