• deontological
• tells you what to do -> you should do 'x'
• universal/absolute/objective
• broke it down into smaller rules -> maxims
  • universalisation - moral law must apply to everyone, everywhere, always therefore if it's wrong for one person therefore all people must act in a similar way 
  • humans as ends not means - don't exploit people for you to get what you want…
