ethics theories  

Definición

  • Theories about ethics attempt to answer the ancient human question, What is good? They are thereby inextricably linked to morals, values, and customs. In fact the words moral and ethics are not only cross-referenced in most English dictionaries, but the word moral comes from the Latin translation of the Greek word ethics, meaning moral character or custom.
