Assignment:

Question 1: The case against pornography is at once the case for asserting that impersonal harms are indeed violations of the harm principle.

Are they? Keep in mind we are only addressing consenting adults who produce and watch/read/listen to pornography. Consider some of the arguments Berger presents accusing pornography of causing harm. Is the harm wrongful? Do you think these arguments are strong enough to outweigh the force of the Volenti maxim? Why?

I. Does Pornography Violate the "harm principle"?

II. A) Define Pornography? How can we be sure we are talking about the same thing?

B) Is Pornography the same as "obscenity"? What's the difference, if any?

C) Present two or three arguments that Berger suggests are the strongest to show that pornography deserves to be censored.

D) Present two or three arguments that Berger suggests are the strongest to show that pornography should not be censored.

E) What do you think, and why?

III. Summary: Repeat the general position for which you have argued, and a summary of the reasons/conclusions for each case.
