Which of the following approaches says that ethical issues should be judged on the basis of some universal code?

  • (a) Deontological
  • (b) Ethical skepticism
  • (c) Utilitarianism
  • (d) Narcissism
The deontological ethics school of thought has its roots in the Greek word "deon," which means duty. This school of thought argues that whether an act is right or wrong should depend on its conformity to a set of rules, duties, or a universal code. This school of thought was popularized by Immanuel Kant, who argued that some acts are right or wrong in and of themselves, regardless of their consequences. Its proponents follow the categorical imperative.
