sexual acts in return for money and cigarettes would strongly provide support to Kohlberg’s Moral Development theory. Becker (1996) identifies that for someone at level one moral development it is the person’s needs that determine right or wrong. Wuornos needed to support herself with money and cigarettes‚ something she would not get from her family‚ as a result‚ by the age of thirty five Wuornos had risen to level three of Kohlberg’s moral development theory.

Discuss theories of moral development Piaget researched into the moral development of children and found that until about 5 years old children are amoral. They cannot make moral judgements or understand rules. However‚ most children under 5 years old know when they are doing something wrong; therefore it could be argued that they aren’t amoral. To understand rules children use equal-status contact with peers to understand others perspectives and begin to develop morally. Piaget used pairs of vignettes

One moral theory in ethics is the Social Contract Theory‚ which tells us “that morality is essentially a cooperative enterprise‚ and that moral rules are those that self-interested people would obey on the condition that all others do as well” (Shafer-Landau 3‚ 2015). This means that people in a society agree tacitly to the rules set forth by it‚ and that abiding to these rules is in their best self-interest because they will get benefits and not be punished for disobeying. The Social Contract theory

Moral judgements have historically been thought to occur outside of conscious control and be emotionally driven (Freud‚ 1976). Empirical data shows humans to make judgements in milliseconds‚ even before giving the decision conscious thought (Willis & Todorov‚ 2006).

Edgar Venegas Phil 310 Professor Charles Van Patten March 21‚ 2015 Moral theory Paper Many philosophers maintain looking for what are right‚ Meanwhile Aristotle searches for what is virtue. In “Virtue Ethics” Aristotle argues‚ “Virtue is a mean state between the extremes‚ both of which are vices either excess or deviancy”(73). All human activities aim at some end that we consider good. Most activities are a means to a higher end. The highest human good‚ then‚ is that activity that is an end

The moral theory of Virtue Ethics is interesting in the way it places more emphasis on character and less on the actions of the person who may perform those actions. I will focus on the issue of voluntary and active euthanasia in relation to the application of virtue ethics. To talk of someone voluntarily taking their own life is still abominable in many societies today. Historically‚ it was unthinkable and unethical to even consider asking a physician to help one take their own life. It is

Moral power stems from tradition and a feeling of obligation to one’s fellow community members. Durkheim describes it by writing “When a native is asked why he follows his rites‚ he replies that ancestors have always done so and that he must follow their example. [...] he feels morally obligated so to conduct himself; he feels he is obeying a sort of imperative‚ fulfilling a duty” (Durkheim 192). The moral obligation members feel for one another is the
