Their search for stability is affected by their various cultural beliefs and experiences that affect their judgment and action. These actions are a reflection of the individuals’ morals, ethics and values. The authors Williams and Arrigo write about the meaning of what morality, ethics and values are. The movie Conspiracy was the opposite of what the book was trying to teach us and violates the principles that I preciously mentioned. Conspiracy was a movie based on 1942, which highlighted a secret meeting between Germans officers to determine the correct course of action when dealing with Jews. “Overall, we might say that the purpose is to enable us to live a good life in a just society” (Williams & Arrigo, 2008, p. 7).

Ethics allows us to take a step back from our beliefs and culture to critically examine and reach normative conclusions of the whole picture. It focuses on what should be the case, whether or not a situation should be taking place rather than analyzing the situation once it occurred. Ethics are prescriptive, attempts to evaluate moral beliefs, principles, and practices and make normative statements about what should be or should not be done. Overall, Ethics encourage us to question, to develop our own thesis and then question once more. In the conspiracy movie, the ethical question is: why are the Jews being segregated in the first place? The German where unethical when they decided to punish and segregate the Jews by emerging them in carbon dioxide based on their bias opinions.

Near the beginning, Gleichschaltung took place, which translates into “equalization” and is the process of ruthlessly ridding of opposition. During this, the head of the local Altoona Nazi party self-appoints himself mayor and takes senators into protective custody while also planning on having former mayor, Max Brauer, hanged, leaving the public defenseless against new authorities (Chotjewitz 80). Then came provisions of Nuremberg Laws, which stated that sex and between a Jew and a German was racial ignominy and marriages between the two races were forbidden (Chotjewitz 98). Later on, however, we learn that there are other ways to oppress them that weren’t legal. For example, when Rhienhard was trying to build up a new practice after being fired, he received a letter from the Ministry of Justice that asked him to declare, “of his own free will, that he could no longer act in any legal capacity, not even as a notary public (Chotjewitz 200).”

“SS and police units arrested or killed tens of thousands of wealthy landowners, clergymen, and educated professionals (both ethnic Poles and Jews). ” This text clearly explains how the German army was a part of the murders of even thousands of people, and those people had a choice of choosing murder or to stand up, especially with their great numbers, and they followed Hitler, which made them a vital role in the Holocaust.
