EvaluationUltimately, virtue ethics seems to suggest that morality and self-interest are unrelated... If people can achieve the kind of happiness which Aristotle equated with 'the good life' outside of the context of such a 'good life', it appears that morality does not flow from self-interest. Moreover it seems that virtue ethics fails to explain how to act - and as such, it can be concluded that it is overly concerned with character-development... ('ethics' is derived from 'ethos', the Greek word for 'character!') |
