,Unit 1

1. Ethical Foundations

Fisher: Morality & Ethics
Key Concepts:

Main Braches of Ethics:
1. Meta-Ethics
• Questions the very possibility and nature of ethics itself.
• are there objective moral facts?
• what do the words “right” and “wrong” actually mean?

, 2. Normative Ethics
• Seeks the rules or principles that should guide behavior.
A. Consequentialism Right & Wrong is determined by consequences put on the decision
B. Deontology Things are right or wrong regardless of consequences (Aka Self Defence giving
prison time… It’s no necessarily wrong)
C. Virtue Theory What I should do is irrelevant, it’s about who I should be?
D. Ethics of Care Criticize that ethics isn’t about me the individual but my duty to others.



• Morality: “an explicit or implicit sytem of rules that governs the behavior and values of a certain
group of people” (p. 4).
• Ethics and Moral Philosophy: “the study of morality – its concepts, practices, and justifications”


Implicit ethical subjectivism
-A commitment to protecting the integrity of individual’s right for self-determination (autonomy)...
-There are “no moral facts” in the universe...
-“X is wrong” means “I disapprove of X”
-A and B only seem to be disagreeing...
Implicit ethical relativism

-Ethical statements are true or false, but only relative to the speaker’s culture.
-There is no place “outside of culture” to choose between them as to which one is correct...
- A commitment to multiculturalism and tolerance...
-What about slavery? or moral progress?




To find right vs. wrong

o Appeal to religion but (Not one god) no universal god
o Let conscience be your guide but (sometimes conscience is wrong like the twin
tower disaster) the “pilots were not psychopaths but true believer’s”
o Appeal to nature, common sense, customs
o All in all it is a fallacy (mistake) to appeal to any authority because you don’t
know the authority is moral. We are on our own to determine what is right and
wrong.
