Ethics Division
of the School of Philosophy

The Ethics Division is part of the School of Philosophy. Please feel free to join in and help to grow the Division.

Ethics, a major branch of philosophy, is the study of values and customs of a person or group and covers the analysis and employment of concepts such as right and wrong, good and evil, and responsibility. It is divided into three primary areas: meta-ethics (the study of the concept of ethics), normative ethics (the study of how to determine ethical values), and applied ethics (the study of the use of ethical values). The purpose of this department is to help facilitate your learning about, exploring, and researching the philosophical field of ethics.

[edit] Departments

Like Divisions, Departments are pages in the Topic namespace, and their names start with the "Topic:" prefix. Individual departments can be used by multiple schools. Schools that use (link to) the same Department should cooperate to develop the Department.
