Reflective questions:
Public leaders and managers tend to see ethical questions and dilemmas from different perspectives. Have you seen this play out in practice during "zero-tolerance" policy? Does this different perspective result in differing ethical decision-making behavior?
From ethical point of view, what do you think about "zero-tolerance" policy? Is there a common morality that peoples of all nations can share?
Which of the global approaches of common morality can be used in this Case study?
To what extent did the Trump Administration's "zero-tolerance" policy on the southern U.S. border traumatize those who were seeking refugee/asylum/citizenship status?
How did public outcry, political pressure, and non-for-profit organizations' reports help to stop "zero-tolerance" policy?
Does the United States have a moral obligation to accept migrants? Why or why not? For example, should we treat economic migrants fleeing economic hardships any differently than political asylum-seekers escaping political persecution and violence? Explain your reasoning.
Does the U.S. have a special moral obligation to receive child migrants? A faction of Americans protested against accepting minors into the country because of the potential burden and threat that the newcomers might pose to local communities. Do you think there are limits to the moral obligation of the U.S. (and other countries) in accepting migrants, even those fleeing violence? Why or why not?
What should the US government do as an alternative to criminally prosecuting migrants? How could the US create border policy in a way that ensures the wellbeing of migrant families, while still protecting national interests?
