Culture influences one's moral development in several key ways according to the document:
1) Culture is communal and promotes relationships by establishing norms, rules, and standards of behavior for its members.
2) Culture defines normative principles and behaviors for the society and sets boundaries to protect the community.
3) Culture conditions the mind and helps generate the identity and moral character of its people.
Deontological ethics is a theory that bases the morality of actions on duties and rights rather than the consequences of the actions. It proposes that an action is right if it adheres to a moral rule or duty. Immanuel Kant's theory of deontology is one of the most influential. For Kant, the only intrinsically good thing is a good will. He formulated the Categorical Imperative which states that moral rules must be universal and that people should never be treated merely as a means but always as ends in themselves. Deontological ethics emphasizes adherence to rules and duties over consequences, but it is criticized for being too rigid and not dealing well with conflicts between duties.
An ethical dilemma is a situation where a choice must be made between two undesirable alternatives that both have moral implications. This can impact a business's profitability, competitiveness, and its stakeholders which include shareholders, employees, and society. To resolve ethical dilemmas, one should analyze the consequences of each option, analyze the moral nature of each action, and make a decision.
The document discusses moral dilemmas where either choice results in a moral wrong. It provides the example from the Republic where Cephalus defines justice as repaying debts, but Socrates argues it would be wrong to repay certain debts like weapons. There is then a conflict between moral norms of repaying debts versus protecting others from harm. It discusses Kohlberg's stages of moral development and provides the example moral dilemma of whether Heinz should steal medicine to save his wife at different stages. It also discusses if Socrates faced a moral dilemma in the Crito about whether to escape prison or die.
Moral standards refer to rules regarding what is right and wrong in human behavior. They involve serious consequences, should be preferred over other values, and are not determined by authorities but by impartial consideration of each person's interests. In contrast, non-moral standards include etiquette, fashion, and game rules unrelated to ethics. Moral standards have six key characteristics that distinguish them from being changeable, non-universal, or self-interested rules.
This document discusses business ethics and ethical decision making. It defines ethics as dealing with moral principles of good and bad or right and wrong. Business ethics examines ethical issues that arise in business. The document outlines types of ethical decisions like harassment, fraud, theft, and whistleblowing. It also discusses frameworks for ethical decision making such as considering duties, outcomes, and how others would want to be treated. The document provides steps for making ethical decisions by identifying the issue, stakeholders, alternatives, and selecting a course of action that minimizes harm.

It examines the origins of moral standards and debates around relativism. Finally, it touches on concepts like conscience, moral principles, self-interest, and individual responsibility within organizations.
This document outlines and compares several major ethical theories: relativism, which holds that moral principles depend on context rather than being absolute; divine command theory, which states that an action is morally right if God commands it; ethical egoism, which argues people should act in their own self-interest; utilitarianism, which evaluates actions based on their consequences and ability to produce happiness; and social contract theory, which views moral obligations as dependent on implicit agreements within a society.

Deontological ethics focuses on adherence to moral rules and duties rather than consequences. It is based on the ideas of Immanuel Kant, who argued that an act is only right if it is done from duty and respects rational moral laws. For Kant, the only unqualified good is a good will, and morality requires acting only on principles that could become universal rules followed by all rational beings. He formulated the categorical imperative as a test of whether actions truly respect humanity as an end in itself.

Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation resultsKrassimira Luka
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).
4. Learning Objectives
At the end of the one hour class, the students are expected
to:
• Enumerate and explain the characteristics of moral
standards;
• Give examples of moral and non-moral standards;
• Differentiate between moral and non-moral standards; and
• Explain how rules in life differ from moral standards.
5. Standards
Standards are rules that help people understand
what should be done or avoided so there can be
order in society. Standards can be moral or non-
moral.
6. What is a moral standard?
• It normally promotes the good, that is the
welfare and well-being of humans as well as
animals and the environment.
• It is a code of what is right or wrong without
reference to specific behaviours or beliefs
(O’Connor, Lynn, 1997).
7. Characteristics of moral standard
• Moral standards involve behaviours that seriously
affect other people’s well-being.
• Moral standards take a more important
consideration than other standards, including
self-interest.
• Moral standards do not depend on any external
authority but in how the person perceives the
reasonableness of the action.
8. Characteristics of moral standard
• Moral standards are believed to be universal.
• Moral standards are based on objectivity.
• Moral standards are associated with vocabulary
that depicts emotions or feelings like guilt,
shame, remorse, praise, indignation, etc..
9. What is a non-moral standard?
• It can be considered as relative standards by
which someone or something is being judged as
either good or bad.
• Refer to standards by which we judge what is
good or bad and right or wrong in a non-moral
way. It is a matter of taste and preference
10. Moral standards versus other rules in life
Etiquette is a set of rules on how an individual
should responsibly behave in the society (Taylor and
Williams, 2017).
Policy is a clear, simple statement of how an
organization plans to handle its services, actions,
or business. These are guiding rules to help with
decision making (The University of Sydney, 2017).
11. Moral standards versus other rules in life
Law is a rule created and enforced by the
government and its agencies to maintain order,
resolve disputes, and protect a person’s liberty and
rights (Robertson 2018 as cited by Brickley and Gottesman, 2017).
Commandment is a rule that is strictly observed
because it was said to be set by divine entity, such
as those in the Ten Commandments (Stahl, 2009).
12. WHY NEED TO DISTINGUISH MORAL
STANDARDS FROM NON MORAL ONES?
13. WHY NEED TO DISTINGUISH MORAL
STANDARDS FROM NON MORAL ONES?
Different cultures have different moral standards.
What is a matter of indifference that is, a matter
of taste in our culture maybe a matter of moral
significance in another.
14. WHY NEED TO DISTINGUISH MORAL
STANDARDS FROM NON MORAL ONES?
People have to understand the difference between
moral standards and non-moral standard to
identify fundamental ethical values that may guide
our action.
