What is morality? What gives its principles and rules authority in our lives? Write an essay in which you discuss the chief features of morality, and then use those features to compare and contrast two of the four major approaches to the justification of moral principles and rules: Kant's duty-defined morality, Bentham's or Mill's utilitarianism, Aristotle's virtue ethics, and feminist
philosophers' care ethics. Which of these theoretical approaches do you favor and why?
What will be an ideal response?
This essay should address the main features of morality discussed in the beginning of this section (authority, justification, interpretation of rules and principles), while then explaining, comparing, and contrasting two of the more detailed interpretive schemes that follow.
