Kantian ethics

Kantian ethics refers to a deontological ethical theory ascribed to the German philosopher

Kantian ethics refers to a deontological ethical theory ascribed to the German philosopher
Immanuel Kant. The theory, developed as a result of the Enlightenment rationalism, is based on
the view that only intrinsically good thing is a good will; an action can only be good if its maxim-
the principle behind it- duty to the moral law.

Central to Kant’s construction of the moral law is the categorical imperative, which acts on all
people, regardless of their interests or desires. Kant formulated the categorical imperative in
various ways. His principle of universalizability requires that, for an action to be permissible, it
must be possible to apply it to all people without a contradiction occuring. If a contradiction
occurs the act violates Aristotle’s “Non-contradiction”

Good will and duty.

In his combined works, Kant constructed the basis for an ethical law by the concept of duty.
Kant began his ethical theory by arguing that the only virtue that can be unqualifiedly good is a
good will
