- Most of the ethical prescriptions of normative moral philosophy tend to fall into one of the following three categories: deontology, consequentialism, and virtue ethics. These categories in turn put an emphasis on different normative standards for judging what constitutes right and wrong actions. Moral psychologists and behavioral economists such as Jonathan Haidt and Dan Ariely take a different approach: focusing not on some normative ethical framework for moral judgment, but rather on the psychological foundations of moral intuition and on the limitations that our human frailty places on real-world honesty, decency, and ethical commitments. In this context, write on what you see as the most important differences between the traditional normative philosophical approaches and the more recent empirical approach of moral psychology when it comes to ethics. As part of your answer also make sure that you discuss the implications of these differences.arrow_forwardTo what extent do our moral ideas reflect the society around us, and to what extent are we free to think for ourselves about moral matters? please help with this discussion questionarrow_forwardEvaluate ‘utilitarianism’ as a moral doctrine that underpins ethical valuesarrow_forward
