I am choosing to do dog fighting for the first part. To me people that support and encourage dog fights are sick people. I believe that it could be considered to be more than one theoretical perspective for a few reasons. I think mainly it is the conflict theory.

CASE STUDY of ‘The Moonlighter” 1. INTRODUCTION According to Lewis, business ethics is a topic that has received much attention in literature but due to its abstract nature, nearly all definitions available exist at highly theoretical levels (Lewis 1985, 377).
