Analysis
Different cultures vary in their ethical manifestations. There are prohibitions about food, especially meat and styles
of clothing. Status of women differs. Free enterprise and socialism have different economic values. There are the values
of hiya and pakikisama, expressing the Filipino’s manner of communication and behaviour. These are actual modes of
conduct - subjective and situational. Their attitude depends on the accepted practices and ways of behaviour of a given
people at a given time. But beneath such diversity, there is a clear convergence on some basic values which can truly
be called universals. No culture tolerates indiscriminate lying, stealing, or violence within the group. Incest is taboo by
all cultures. Health, safety, productivity, efficiency, integrity, freedom, justice, beauty, love, family, solidarity, and
respect for the dignity of man are valid for all mankind at all times.
Here are statements from various philosophical sources, which while stated differently share a common principle
- respect other people and treat them fairly.
Confucius as someone interested in politics established five constant virtues that he believed must be used in
governance.
What would people disagree with the statements above? The timelessness of ethical universals in different
environments suggests that virtues such as union and righteousness are deeply embedded in man’s nature and are
necessary to maintain a happy life.
