  Domestic violence is a tipe of violence in which one of the members of a family violents another member, but in Mexico sadly this has been a problem since a long time ago, for example according to "El economista" just in 2019, 239,219 cases of domestic violence were reported, and this year just in the first three months domestic violence increased 20.7%, but the scariest thing is that in the first three weeks of social distancing 911 calls of domestic violence increased 60%,     therefore the question everyones asking is "how can we decrease domestic violence?, according to the UNICEF there are some strategies that can be implemented in order to decrease this type of violence like give education to the parents that way if necesary they will implement positive disciplinary methods instead ofcreating a trauma in the kid, another strategy that is said to work is to change the social norms of discrimination and violence, this way any type of violence wont be seen as normal...

 Axiology is define as the study of values and how those values come about in a society however it divides in two parts, the axiological objectivism in which the value of something is define by the qualities and characteristics of the thing, and the other it’s the    axiological subjectivism, subjectivism claims that the depending on what t    subject values is their appreciation for something and it’s either because they are interested in it considered necessary, learning the types of axiology I also learned that people sometimes give value to the wrong things and they focused so much in those things that miss what’s important.  I know that in axiological objectivism the values of something depends on the quality but in axiological subjectivism people decide, and they decide based on the sentimental value for example a watch that in reality is worth $100 but in a family could be worthy    of millions because of the sentimental value, what I’m say...

  Values and anti values   In my short life I have come to learn the importance of values in our society, this is because with out them we wouldn’t be able know whats right and wrong,    but what intrigues my the most it’s    how depending on each person we tend    to have different priority of values depending on how we wear raced or what we have learned, for example for some people respect is the most important value in their life’s but for others maybe honesty is their priority, it intrigues me because it shows how we all have different opinions and that’s important because it shows how as we grow we define our values and how most of us try to make the best out of our lives with out damaging someone else, what I mean with damaging someone else it’s the part of anti values in which people decide to actually be mean and damage the society, that’s why it intrigued me so much as I mentioned, we all have different values and that’s what define us an...

 There has been 4 types of ethics since the concept was created, the first concept of ethics was created in 470-270 B.C and was called the Greco-Latin ethics in which philosophers began to reason about what good is and how it can be achieved, in here the first virtues were proposed and the ethical thinking began with socrates, thats why his known as the father of ethics and he tend to held the need to reflect what is good in order to do so. Then the Medieval ethics were created, during this time the church predominated so the point of view had to be linked to religion morals, and christian philosophy taught to love others as one should love oneself, after the Medieval ethics the modern ethics were created, in here Thomas Hobbes thought that a human can be a God or a wolf in society but this can be prevented when we are organized as a society, but also Benedict Spinoza believed that ethics should follow the method of natural science in which he identified good with pleasure, what he...

In 1967 the philosopher Philippa foot created what we call today the trolley problem, this consist in a dilema in which people need to decide between saving 5 lives that will get killed because a trolley is approaching them and they cant move or switching the path of the trolley and letting just one person get killed, in this experiment people usually choose letting just one person get killed in order to save five more but the dilema in here is wether to choose between your morals that forbid you being a part of someones dead or the one that has a better outcome. But when they decided to change the scenario in which the same trolley is approaching the same five people but now theres no switch, now theres a bridge  and in order to save the five humans you need to push a person from the bridge, the interesting part its that after this most of the people decided to let the five humans get killed instead of pushing one to safe five, this is because our instincts tell us that its wrong ...

Ethics  I think ethics is something we need in our life especially seeing how things are right now, ethics teaches us right and wrong, but how do they know what’s right and what’s wrong?, well in my opinion this is an easy question if you look society or basically anything and see something that doesn’t add up ur doesn’t makes sense to your moral then it’s probably wrong, like racism there should not be such thing like that, but since there should not be such thing like that why is there?, well in my opinion this is because the lack of values and ethics teached, if we could teach people since the moment they are kids about values and how society needs to change then we could really make a difference, and that’s why ethics is important it teaches us about important things, right and wrong and also it’s connected to philosophy which is the act of thinking, and that’s a good thing because thanks to philosophy we can have our own opinion about things and with ethics we can learn how to...
