Asked by Sheenna8253

Answer (1)

Kant’s Deontological EthicsAn action is right if it follows a moral rule or principle.We should act according to the “categorical imperative”. Only do something if it would be okay for everyone to do it too.People should be treated as ends, not just as tools to get what we want.Kant’s deontological ethics focuses on doing what is morally right based on duty, not on the results. For example, if lying is wrong, then it is always wrong, even if it brings good results. For Kant, honesty is a duty no matter what.
