The Ethics

Ethics is the branch of philosophy that studies the goodness or badness of comportamientos.1 Its focus human actions and those aspects of them which relate to the good, virtue, duty, happiness and life made. The study of ethics goes back to the very origins of philosophy in ancient Greece, and its historical development has been wide and varied.

Ethics examines what is a moral act, how a moral system is rationally justified, and how it has subsequently applied individually and socially. In everyday life is a reflection on the moral fact, find the reasons for the adoption of a moral system or another.

An ethical doctrine develops and verifies claims or certain judgments. An ethical judgment, moral judgment or policy statement is a statement containing words such as "good", "bad", "right", "wrong", "mandatory", "allowed", etc., referring to an action, a decision or even contain the intentions of the perpetrator or decide something. When ethical judgments are used it is morally valuing people, situations, or actions. Moral judgments are set when, for example, it is said, "That man is bad", "should not be killed", etc. In these statements the "bad" terms, "should not", etc., that involve moral valuations appear.

When a person catches a value with their intelligence, it is requested by that value, and then intelligence will propose to the realization of such value. But intelligence press gently, without suppressing free will; simply sees an objective necessity and as such proposes to the will for its realization. This is therefore, a requirement of reason itself, based on an objective value, but born in the depths and elevated each man his own reason. Therefore Moral Obligation is autonomous and not incompatible with free will.
