The Beginnings…
![Page 44: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

The beginnings…
• Aristotle is associated with the origins and his
NICHOMACHEAN ETHICS is the original source book
for a practical ethics of good character
• “For a while it is satisfactory to acquire and preserve
the good even for an individual, it is finer and more
divine to acquire and preserve it for a people and
for cities”
![Page 46: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
The beginnings…
• Virtue ethics has always been marked by the
obligation to transcend one’s own self interest
ROMAN STOICS
• Who were often statesman-philosophers, made the
fusion of moral virtue and political obligation into a
more powerful conception of civic virtue
![Page 47: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
The beginnings…
• “civic humanism (virtue) conceives of man as a
political being whose realization of self occurs only
through participation in public life, through active
citizenship in a republic. The virtuous man is
concerned primarily with the public good or
commonweal, not with private or selfish ends.”
CORRUPTION IS THE ABSENCE OF CIVIC VIRTUE

The growth
• Following the Roman
concern with civic
virtues, St. Thomas
Aquinas moved the
concept into Christian
theology and extended
its influence.

The growth
• Renaissance and
Enlightenment solidified
the fusion of moral virtue
with civic responsibility,
articulating a civic
philosophy of good
character
![Page 50: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
The growth
• civic virtue was prominent
in the debates of the
Philadelphia Convention
[which] are notoriously
the highest point ever
reached by civic humanist
theory in practice . . ."

The growth
![Page 52: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
The 1950’s
![Page 53: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
What is ‘virtue’?
• 1755: Dr. Samuel Johnson wrote, “virtue is defined as
moral goodness and a particular moral excellence”
• “conformity of life and conduct with moral
principles; voluntary observance of the recognised
moral laws or standards of right conduct; abstention
on moral grounds from any form of wrong doing or
vice”
![Page 54: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Principle v/s Rule
• In ethics of virtue, the principles (convictions)
are superior to the rules, because the former
require thought and intentionality, as
opposed to simple obedience, when they are
applied to actual situations.
![Page 55: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Voluntary observance
• The phrase “voluntary observance” is also
essential because as most of the philosophers
of virtue recognised, virtue cannot be
compelled; the good character of the virtuous
man or woman must be achieved voluntarily.
![Page 56: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Emphasis
• Places primary emphasis upon the development of
internal qualities of character and only secondarily
upon obedience to external moral rules
• That only through a life of virtue that persons can
become fully human

Excellence in Moral Character
• For an individual to be virtuous, he or she
must intentionally, voluntarily and constantly
be in the process of creating a noble character.
• For this reason ethics of virtue has often been
made synonymous with an ethics of good
character
![Page 64: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Conclusion
• All individuals are born with an innate imperative to
virtue
• Virtue is necessary to be fully human
• The cardinal values must be intentionally cultivated
• One must engage in intentional voluntary moral action
• One requires unending moral improvement- “use it or
lose it”

Introduction
• people needed to learn
“how not to be good” and
“how to use good and bad
for BENEFICIAL ENDS.”
• Ethical merit of an action
should be judged by its
CONSEQUENCES rather
than virtues of the actor
![Page 67: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Introduction
• Emphasizes on ends, purposes and goals that
result from actions rather than principles that
precede action.
• An action is right or wrong depending on its
consequences.

Bentham
• “by the principle of utility is meant that principle
which approves or disapproves of every action
whatsoever, according to the tendency it appears to
have to augment or diminish the HAPPINESS of the
party whose interest is in question; or what is the
same thing in other words, to promote or to oppose
that happiness.”
![Page 70: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Bentham
• “by utility is meant that property in any object, whereby
it tends to produce benefit, advantage, pleasure, good
or happiness, or to prevent the happening of mischief,
pain, evil or unhappiness to the party whose interest is
considered; if that party be the community in general,
then the happiness of the community; if a particular
individual, then the happiness of that individual.”

What is utility?
• Central notion of utilitarianism
• Utility represents a particular positive value to
people and is considered good
• General term for things people prefer
• Utility is subjective
![Page 72: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Central Ideas
• Proposes that an action is morally right when it leads to something
people prefer, whereas an action is considered morally wrong when
it leads to something people do not prefer.
• whether a certain action is right or wrong does not depend on
what the kind of action it is (whether it is a case of
lying or killing) or with what intention it is performed (whether it is performed with good or bad intentions)
![Page 73: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Central Ideas
• morally correct actions are not simply all actions with
favorable consequences, but the morally correct
action is one which produces the BEST
CONSEQUENCES
• It is not a selfish theory. It proposes that that action
which maximizes the utility of all parties involved is
right.
![Page 74: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
Advantages
• Unlike other approaches, it is not oblivious of results, it
looks beyond the act to the consequences of the act in
determining whether it is right or wrong.
• It also permits flexibility. Rules or principles are rigid and
flexibility is needed to respond to changing situations
• It is what one accomplishes that is important, rather
than how it is done
![Page 75: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
Disadvantages
• What is happiness?
• Why should it be pursued?
• How is it measured, now and in the future?
• If only ends of an individual’s actions are considered,
then there is a great potential for abuse
![Page 76: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Deontology or Principle Based
Approach
![Page 77: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Duty v/s Principle approach
• Principle based approach emphasizes what is
right in a universal or objectively verifiable
sense
• Duty based approach emphasizes obligations
derived from the nature of public service role
![Page 78: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
Central ideas
• This approach relies in principles rather than
virtues
• To use this approach one needs to have
knowledge of a set of principles and the
deductive capacity to appropriately apply
those principles to actual situations
![Page 79: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
Central ideas
• Does not focus on the consequences of actions, but
on certain principles of actions that are valid at all
times, irrespective of the consequences
• It involves characteristics that make an action
morally right or wrong in itself because an
important moral principle is respected or violated.
![Page 80: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
Central ideas
The approach can be defined as:
“when performing an action, it is your moral
duty to choose the alternative that complies
with a valid moral rule or principle, irrespective
of the consequences of such a choice.”
![Page 81: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
Advantages
• Provides an external source of ethical guidance. The
principles are greater than oneself, one’s organisation
and one’s society.
• The principles are by their nature, good reasons to
act- not because of the consequences- but because
they are independently valid
• Focuses on how to act?
![Page 82: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
Disadvantages
• Does not explain, what to do when there is a
conflict among principles
• No guidance on how to handle exceptions
• Requires knowledge of principles
• No guidance on ordering of principles

Morality of Human Actions
![Page 90: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/90.jpg)
What is morality?
• Examination of human action to decide if it is
good or bad
• End or purpose means the reason for which a
person performs an action
![Page 91: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
The Purpose of Human Action
• Epicureans: Pleasure
• Stoics: Cultivation of the mind or control over
knowledge
• Materialism: acquiring material goods
• Humanism: achieving prosperity & progress for
human race

Determinants of Morality in Human Action
End or purpose of Human Action
• An action that is INDIFFERENT because of its object may
become good or bad
• An action that is GOOD because of its object may become
more good or less good or even bad because of the purpose
• An action that is EVIL by its object may become more wrong
or perhaps less wrong

Determinants of Morality in Human Action
Circumstances of a Human Action
• Includes such things as the act being done at a
particular time, in a particular place, by a
particular agent, in a particular manner

Emotion & Action
• Concept of emotion is largely absent from
contemporary theories of action
• Philosophers of action concern themselves
with intentions, wants, purposes, desires,
beliefs, plans, volitions, without paying much
attention to emotions.
![Page 98: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/98.jpg)
Nature of emotion
Misconceived notions about nature of emotion:
• Emotions are irrational and disruptive
• Emotions are things that merely happen to people
rather than people do voluntarily
• The impact of emotions on action is at best indirect
and insignificant
SO EMOTIONS ARE IRRELEVANT TO HUMAN ACTION
![Page 99: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/99.jpg)

Emotion v/s Reason
• Emotion was conventionally considered as
opposed to the finest human ability REASON
• Emotion is primitive, unpredictable,
undependable and thus needs to be
controlled by reason
![Page 102: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
Emotion – Reason Dichotomy
• There is the reason-emotion dichotomy; we are dealing
with two different kinds of mental phenomenon, two
conflicting aspects of mind
• Emotion is inferior and disruptive to the normal and
optimal functions of mind
• Emotion should be under control of reason for the sake
of our normal activities of thought and action

David Hume
“Reason is, and ought
only to be the slave of
passions”
![Page 104: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/104.jpg)
Emotion v/s Action
• Emotions are commonly considered as things
that happen to us, out of control and
INVOLUNTARY
• The passivity of emotion is usually in contrast
to ACTIVITY, the hallmark of action
![Page 105: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/105.jpg)
Emotion v/s Action
• Actions are generally understood as things
that we do, perform and initiate rather than
things that merely happen to us
• Most philosophical theories of action
distinguish between what we do and what
merely happens
![Page 106: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/106.jpg)
Emotion not the Primary Reason
• Emotions can serve only as background factors,
indirectly affecting the motivational component of
Action
• Action requires appropriate motivational & epistemic
factors (Primary Reason).
• Motivational factors: intentions, desires, purposes
• Epistemic factors: beliefs
![Page 107: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/107.jpg)
Post 1990 developments…
• The dichotomy between emotion and reason
has been questioned by a number of
philosophers, psychologists and neurobiologists
• The relation between reason and emotion may
be that they are integral & supportive to each
other, rather than antagonistic and conflicting
![Page 108: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/108.jpg)
Post 1990 developments…
• Emotions are typically not the result of deliberative,
intellectual calculations, they are not necessarily
irrational or non-rational
• EMOTIONS ARE EVALUATIVE AND RESPONSIVE
PATTERNS THAT EMERGE THROUGH THE
EVOLUTION OF THE SPECIES AND THE
DEVELOPMENT OF INDIVIDUALS
![Page 109: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
Post 1990 developments…
• They serve the function of providing appraisals about
whether what is happening is harmful, threatening or
beneficial to our well being under certain conditions
• In many cases, emotions rather than deliberate
intellectual calculations, supply the most reliable

Post 1990 role of emotion in our behavior
• Expression of emotions is inherently an important
means of social interaction and may have a crucial
impact on the life of others.
• Regulating emotions is quite common in our
everyday life. Emotion regulation is increasingly
recognised as an important skill of coping with social
and personal problems.

2 Phases in Human Action
• Generation of an Action: this phase includes
how a plan or intention is formed, what decision
or choice is made and how an action is initiated.
• Execution & control of an Action: this phase
specifies how a plan or intention is executed or
carried out by human body.

Emotion & Generation of Human Action
Emotions can influence the generation of an
action in 2 ways:
• The tendency & readiness to Act
• The decision to Act
![Page 115: Ethics. The paper will test… Candidates’ attitude and APPROACH to issues relating to integrity, probity in public life Candidates’ problem solving APPROACH](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551aea15550346f70d8b4a8d/html5/thumbnails/115.jpg)
Emotion & Generation of Human Action
“Action tendencies and readiness are natural
consequences of a given emotional appraisal of
how to cope with the situation. They are also
shaped by evolution and adaptation.”

Emotion & Decision Making
• Emotion may have an impact in the process of
decision making or choosing among alternative
options.
• From our daily experience and ordinary
psychological practice, it seems no less apparent
that emotions impact heavily on people’s decision
making process.

Role of Emotion in Decision Making
NEGLECTED:
• Emotion plays only an insignificant &
negligible role in the real process of people’s
decision making
• Emotions are a disruptive force undermining
optimal decision making

Impact of Emotion in Decision Making
• One advantage of emotion based decision
making is speed & efficiency: emotion helps
to frame the options of action to be
evaluated. Those courses of action associated
with strong negative emotional feelings will be
eliminated from consideration at the outset.

Impact of Emotion in Decision Making
• Another striking advantage is that basing your
decisions on emotions helps to ensure that
the decisions are inherently significant to
you, taking into account what you really care
about.

sensitivity and sympathy to public needs and demands
and this means being aware of feelings and emotions.
