When you write a reflection paper, the essay must be written in the “first-person”. This method of writing allows one the opportunity to reflect back on this week’s readings and video and write an opinion/s or suggestion/s about the topics.
The assignment for this week is to write a 5-8 page, double-spaced reflection paper pertaining to the ethical issues of counterfeiting. There are five issues to contemplate, and each topic of the reflection paper must be approximately 1-2 pages in length. Explain your answers by including examples in each of the five ethical issues. (Remember to include a reference page.)
The five ethical issues to evaluate are:
Reflect on the issues of intellectual property rights, and fashion design. Is copying a fashion design ethical/unethical?
Reflect and examine the issue of confidentiality. Is compromising the confidentiality of a fashion designer’s idea and/or pattern ethical/unethical (referring to the confidentiality of a design, a product or a corporation, NOT the fashion designer)?
Think about the issue of fraud. Is producing a replica of a fashion design from a runway show recently displayed on YouTube illegal and/or unethical?
Analyze the issue of profits being made by covert and deceitful global manufacturers. Should the illegal global manufacturers be convicted of a crime? If so, what should be done with the profits?
Based on your knowledge of counterfeit fashion apparel, do you feel this industry will ever be eliminated?
