The Trolley Problem Variations

#utilitarianism #deontology #moral-dilemma #sacrifice

Evaluate moral intuitions regarding utilitarianism versus deontological ethics.

Compare the standard Trolley Problem, where pulling a lever diverts a trolley to kill one instead of five, with the Footbridge Variation, where pushing a large man off a bridge stops the trolley. Analyze why moral intuitions often differ between these two scenarios despite the mathematical outcome being identical (one death to save five). Discuss the conflict between utilitarian calculations and deontological restrictions against using persons as mere means.
