Document Summary
Business: when you offer a product or a service. The ethic part of business has not always been there. Improved through cooperation and when business got more complicated. Not about what i can do or what the law says. The golden rule; to unto to others as you would want them to do unto you. Epictetys: not happy until you emprise a system. Epicurus: need to find yourself, like friends, money and freedom. Consequentialism deontology: good/bad right/wrong, in justifies (motiverar)the means, not possible here. Its ok to do bad for better good: feelings/emotions, utilitarianism reason/logic. Main dilemma: should i do what is right or what will be for the greatest good: consequentialism: consequences, deontology: what you believe is right. (deon=duty. What reason tells you is right regardless of the consequences). Both theories important, and not more right than the other. The consequence gets more important than keeping your word. Our moral should be based on this foundations of morals.
