Ethics

1. Many individuals despise rules because they represent some type of restriction.
However, without
rules, life cannot be place in order. If rules and regulations as we know them did not exist, modern
civilization would definitely descend into anarchy. Do you think a lot of learning would happen if
everyone in a classroom were free to do anything they wanted? Is it a good place to learn? A rule-free
classroom would be chaos.
Rules are rules formed in communities and countries that serve as a standard. These rules vary from one
region to the next, and these variations are usually dictated by elements such as social interactions,
attitudes, regulations, and the sort of government in existence. Furthermore, violators of these
principles are typically deal with by the penalties imposed by the laws of the nation. To summarize, rules
are important for directing and monitoring interactions between members of society. Some rules, such
as those found in schools, are information. People who break such restrictions typically face modest
penalties such as imprisonment. Other defined standards, however, must be followed by all members of
society.
Rules are important because they are intend to guard society's weaker classes, who are at a
disadvantage if such rules are disregarded. When rules are established and followed correctly, they offer
a stable environment for human coexistence in a society, resulting in peace and order. The rules are
design to get the intended results. Rules, for example, are employ in schools to foster discipline and
trust, with the goal of providing a calm learning environment for students. Furthermore, rules are
essential in one's life since they promote peace and order, which is a crucial component for the growth
of society. Many societies have accepted and transformed these norms into law in order to sustain
them. This ensures that no regulations are breach. If a rule is broken, a commensurate punishment is
enforced. The rules are also in place to protect us from one another, or, more particularly, from our
fundamental self-serving tendencies and self-destructive behaviors. You can guarantee that if we don't
have a system of law that punishes illegal behaviors like murder and stealing, the crime rate will soar.
Even the most fundamental rules, such as appropriate rubbish disposal, must be observed. Otherwise,
the entire earth, as well as humanity, will be endangered.
All rules and regulations are intended to safeguard the lives of all people. These standards show a
member of the community what is appropriate and to what degree. As time passes, new norms emerge
or old ones are modified to reflect the current state of society.
2. There are two schools of thought in the realm of ethics, normative and descriptive. Disagreements in
ethical arguments are not uncommon because people approach the issue from one of these three
perspectives. The study of ethical action is known as normative ethics. In other terms, it investigates
how individuals should act morally. It is also concerned with moral standards of what is correct and
incorrect. Furthermore, how to arrive at and defend basic moral principles is important to normative
ethics. This concept is determined using teleological and deontological theories. The goodness or
badness of action is determined in teleological ethics by examining the consequences of that action,
whereas in deontological theories, the goodness or badness of action is determined by examining the
action itself. Descriptive or comparative ethics is the study of people's moral ideas. In other terms, it
investigates 'what individuals consider to be correct?' 'Descriptive ethics, then, is concerned with
explaining people's moral ideals and norms, as well as their behavior.' Furthermore, descriptive ethics is
a sort of empirical inquiry that incorporates findings from psychology, sociology, anthropology, and
history. According to empirical investigations, all cultures and communities have their own moral
standards that encourage or prohibit particular behaviors. Descriptive ethics also investigates the
variations and similarities in moral behaviors among countries, as well as the evolution of the principles
that support these practices.
The major difference between normative ethics and descriptive ethics is that normative ethics
investigates how individuals should act, whereas descriptive ethics investigates what people perceive to
be right. The study of ethical conduct is known as normative ethics, whereas the study of people's
attitudes toward moral convictions is known as descriptive ethics. Descriptive ethics, as the name
implies, depicts people's conduct and moral standards. Descriptive ethics, on the other hand, is
concerned with what is ethically proper and wrong. Other well-known disciplines of ethics are
metaethics and applied ethics.
