Read “Legalizing the Organ Trade?” by Ritter, located on the
Time website (copy and paste the link into the URL).
As noted in Peter Ritter’s (2008), “Legalizing the Organ
Trade?”, Singapore’s health minister, Khaw Boon Wan, argued that, “We may be
able to find an acceptable way to allow a meaningful compensation for some
living, unrelated kidney donors, without breaching ethical principles or
hurting the sensitivities of others” (para. 2). In the definition essay
assignment, you are asked to select a term, define the term, and offer evidence
to support your definition of the term.
In this case, imagine you have selected the term meaningful compensation to
define. You might ask yourself: What constitutes meaningful compensation for an
organ donor, especially if the donor is poor and the recipient is wealthy? What
examples of human organ sales can I find that match or do not match your
definition of meaningful compensation? What other terms related to organ sales
and donation would be suitable for an argument of definition?
In the Aristotelian or Classical Framework for argument, a
writer might target an audience of readers that is undecided or neutral about the
main claim (thesis statement) of the essay. A section is placed directly before
the conclusion for acknowledging opposing viewpoints. Then the writer chooses
to concede or refute that view.
Why does the writer not want to spend much time on an opposing
viewpoint? Why mention that viewpoint at all? How might a concession help or
hinder the main claim of the essay (the thesis)? What are some opposing
viewpoints you might include in your definition essay?
