Kantian Ethics
- Deontological approach
- Moral actions
should be
preformed as a
matter of duty.
- Humans are seeking
an end goal - Summum
Bonum
- Summum Bonum
cannot be achieved
in a lifetime -
Humans must be
immortal
- The existence of
morality proves the
existence of God
- Rationalist
- 'ought' implies can' means
if you ought to do
something then you
should do it.
- Good will is the
intention to do
your duty.
- Apriori is based on
logic rather than
evidence
- The Kingdom
of Ends is a
world in which
people do not
treat others
as means but
only as ends.
- Enlightenment

important to
mans ability to
reason .
- Good will + Duty = Moral action
- Categorical
Imperative - the
one rules that
should be
followed in order
to decide what is
right and wrong.
- To be a categorical imperative it has to be;
- Universalisation
- apply to
everyone
- Humans as ends
and not means -
people are the
most important
factor of morality.
It is not ok to use
humans to haeve
the majority.
- The Kingdom of Ends - All people should be treated
equally. Assume that everyone can make rational
decisons; everyone can be moral. Assume
everyone is good.
- Universalisation
- apply to
everyone
- We all have good will
inside us - the drive to do
good.
- Morality is a categorical
imperitive - moral rule
you HAVE to follow.
- Hypothetical
imperitive -
something you
have to do in
order to achieve
a goal. (only
applies to you)
- Rational - use reason
to logically work out
something
- An end in itself - treating as
if it is important.
- Legislator in the Kingdom of Ends -
act as everybody will choose the
right thing to do.
- Kant believes there is 3 postulates of practical reason.
- Freedom
- God
- Immortality
- These postulates come from
Kant's theory about the use of
reason. Kant believed that the
experience of the moral law
leads us to our awareness of
freedom.
- Freedom
- Not concerned with
consequences
- These moral choices are independent of any though of consequence.
Acting morally is an end in itself.
