Virtue Ethics What is a Virtue?
Virtue Ethics Three doors to Ethics • The Good – (Ontological-Metaphysical Term) - Refers to the natural rights, for we have a right to what is good, not evil. • The Right – (Legal Term) • The Ought – (Psychological Term) Aristotle – Good is the object of desire, just as truth is the object of knowledge.
Virtue Ethics Aristotle • Two kinds of good: Ø Ends – Things desired for themselves, like pleasure, beauty or understanding. Ø Means – Things desired for the sake of other means in order to attain other things, for example: Money can buy health, or comfort. ----------------------------------------------- Ø What is the end of ends? The purpose of life? The summum bonum ? – Eudamonia (happiness). You can’t reach the Eudamonic state without being good. (Teleological system – end of human nature, being happy) True happiness is “Activity of the Soul according to virtue in a complete life”.
