    VIRTUE ETHICS
    • An approach to ethics that focuses on virtue or the good character of a person rather than on
    duties (deontology) and the consequences of an action (consequentialism).
    • A man who is virtuous knows what is good or bad and does what is good at all times.

    The goal of life, in accordance to virtue ethics, is self-


    actualization (full development of a person).
    Achieving such meant pursuing ideals of goodness,
    common good, and living a good/virtuous life.
