1 Read the following situation, which presents a ‘moral dilemma’.
In a department store a woman (Perdita) is seen taking some bread and cheese without 
paying for it. It is known that she is very poor and that if she is charged and taken to 
court, she will probably get sent to prison and her children will be taken into care. In the 
department store a meeting has been quickly arranged to decide what to do about Perdita.
What five different roles could you assign students to provoke a role-play of the meeting?
