Van Dale

Exploitation, in the context of the meaning “the act of using someone unfairly for your own advantage,” typically involves several key points:

  1. Unfairness: Exploitation implies an unfair or unjust treatment of someone for one’s own benefit. It often involves taking advantage of a power imbalance or vulnerability in another person to gain an advantage.

  2. Use: Exploitation involves utilizing or taking advantage of someone, often without their consent or against their will, for personal gain. This could include exploiting someone’s labor, resources, or talents without providing fair compensation or recognition.

  3. Another person: Exploitation typically involves the exploitation of one person by another person or entity, such as an individual, a group, an organization, or a system. It can occur in various relationships, such as in the workplace, in business transactions, or in personal interactions.

  4. Personal advantage: Exploitation is driven by the pursuit of personal gain, benefit, or advantage. This could include financial gain, increased power, social status, or other forms of self-interest at the expense of the exploited person.

  5. Unethical or immoral behavior: Exploitation is generally considered unethical or immoral, as it often involves taking advantage of others in a way that disregards their rights, dignity, or well-being. It can be seen as a form of abuse or oppression.

  6. Lack of consent or informed choice: Exploitation often involves taking advantage of someone without their full and informed consent or choice. The exploited person may not have the knowledge, information, or ability to freely choose or negotiate the terms of their involvement, resulting in an unfair and imbalanced relationship.

  7. Systemic or structural dynamics: Exploitation can also be embedded in systemic or structural dynamics, such as economic systems, social hierarchies, or cultural norms, that perpetuate unfair treatment and power imbalances, leading to exploitation on a larger scale.

Overall, exploitation involves the unfair use of someone for personal advantage, often without their consent or against their will, and is generally considered unethical or immoral.

1 Exploiting the poor – sex slavery in Europe | DW Documentary

Back to menu

9 mrt. 2021

All they want to do is escape poverty, but they end up in the hands of sex traffickers. Women from Romania in particular, sometimes fall prey to criminal networks while seeking a better life in Germany.

And for the most part, the criminals go undetected – because sex work is a perfectly legal job in Germany, provided it’s consensual. But estimates suggest that up to 90 percent of the women are forced into the sex trade. Human beings are a lucrative commodity for organized crime. Compared to drugs or weapons, they cost very little. And they can be sold not just once, but repeatedly, every day. Young women seeking to escape poverty in their home countries end up in German brothels. Most of them come from Romania or Bulgaria. Unscrupulous human traffickers lure them with the promise of a well-paid job only to force them into sex slavery. Some of them sell their services for the price of a pack of cigarettes. This sexual exploitation is facilitated by a law that legalizes sex work in Germany, defining it as a service provided voluntarily. It’s not clear just how many women are coerced into the trade. Sascha, for example, was forced to serve 20 to 30 clients a day, until she managed to escape with the help of “Amalie”, an advisory and support service for women in the industry, based in the German city of Mannheim. “Amalie” provided her with accommodation and a job so that she was able to build a new life for herself.

4 Ethics Defined: Justice

Back to menu

18 dec. 2018

Justice

Justice, for many people, refers to fairness. But while justice is important to almost everyone, it means different things to different groups.

For instance, social justice is the notion that everyone deserves equal economic, political, and social opportunities irrespective of race, gender, or religion. Distributive justice refers to the equitable allocation of assets in society. Environmental justice is the fair treatment of all people with regard to environmental burdens and benefits.

Restorative or corrective justice seeks to make whole those who have suffered unfairly. Retributive justice seeks to punish wrongdoers objectively and proportionately. And procedural justice refers to implementing legal decisions in accordance with fair and unbiased processes.

Justice is one of the most important moral values in the spheres of law and politics. Legal and political systems that maintain law and order are desirable, but they cannot accomplish either unless they also achieve justice.

11 What is Ethics? – PHILO-notes Whiteboard Edition

11 jun. 2018

This video briefly discusses the meaning, nature, and dynamics of ethics. Broadly construed, ethics is a branch of philosophy that studies the rightness or wrongness of a human action. In particular, this branch of philosophy is concerned with questions of how human persons ought to act, and the search for a definition of a right conduct and the good life. It is for this reason that the attempt to seek the “good” through the aid of reason is the traditional goal of ethicists.
