DISCRIMINATION



DISCRIMINATION AN ETHICAL PROBLEM
Discrimination – from the latin “discrimen”, which means  TO SEPARATE.


Why is it an ethical problem?
Discrimination is traditionally understood as the impossibility to exert human rights in some sectors of our society due to race, sex, disability, religion, politics, age nationality, etc. People who discriminate have a distorted vision of humans. They think they are above those groups of people who don’t fit the standard of our society.
People live together in society but those who discriminate put our coexistence at risk because they reject members of the community for the sake of being different from the standard. It implies learning to distinguish between the good and the bad.
          Valuing diversity means treating people equally while incorporating their diverse ideas.
          Discrimination means treating people unequally because they are, or appear to be, different.  
As we said in the first term, Ethics deals with the issue of the GOOD.  The question here is:  what is the GOOD?  What is meant by the GOOD?  The answer is needed so that humans will know how to live a GOOD life. It is reflection about the nature of the good life, of right action, of duty and obligation. That’s why discrimination is an ethical issue.
