Ethical issues questions from a dialogue

Read the dialog below.  Answer the questions that follow. 

Meet Lucy Fuego.  Lucy is the C.E.O. of a large apparel company, called Serpentine Designs.  Lucys company has “knocked off” or copied the t-shirt design of a smaller company.  
The smaller company, called Creative Designs, is run by Eve.  Eve is intimidated by the power, reach, and resources of Lucys company.  However, Eves company is now losing money on a shirt that was one of her best sellers.  Eve decides to email Lucy directly. 

1.    Eve:   “Hi Lucy, Did you know that your creative team stole one of my t-shirt designs?”

2.    Lucy:  “Oh, Hi Eve.  We didnt steal your shirt, we simply knocked it off.”

3.     Eve:    “You copied the design, the color, the font; its the same shirt”¨¨

4.     Lucy:   “What can I tell you, Eve?  We didnt do anything illegal.”

¨5.    Eve:    “Well, you may not have done anything illegal, but thats because the laws protecting ¨     designers havent been updated in over a century.  But thats not my point, whether what you did was legal or illegal; it was immoral.”  

6.    Lucy:   “Im sorry Eve, this is the culture of the fashion industry.  And that shirt has been a big hit for us.”

7.    Eve:  “Youre making money, but Im losing money.”  

8.    Lucy:  “Well, thats what matters here, money.  Im in this industry to make money.  If the. roles were reversed, youd do the same thing to me.”

9.    Eve:  “No, I wouldnt.  I understand money is a value, but it isnt the highest or only value.  Im in this industry because this is my vocation; this is what gives my life meaning.  This is a moral way for me to make money.”

10.  Lucy:  “Oh, Eve, thats so cute; what a quaint idea.  But this is the way the apparel industry functions, and it works for us.  It gets us to where we want to go.”

11.  Eve:  “So, whatever makes you money is okay?”

12.  Lucy:  “Precisely, Eve.  As long as its not illegal, its our guiding principle.”

13.  Eve:  “Well, some things are wrong even if theyre legal”

14.  Lucy:  “Oh, theres that cute idea again.  Hey, would consider coming to work for me?  We could use that idea to sell a lot t-shirts?”

1. There is a conflict of values between Eve and Lucy.  What is the conflict?  In other words, what value does Lucy primarily represent and what value does Eve primarily represent?  Defend your answer.
2. Is Lucy a utilitarian?  Why or why not?  Is Eve a utilitarian?  Why or why not?
3. What is cultural relativism?  What would or could a cultural relativist say about Lucy and Eves dispute?
