Q

Immanuel Kant

A
  • Principle 1 (Consistency): An action can only be regarded as right is the rule guiding that behaviour should be followed consistently by everyone in all cases, without contradiction.
  • Principle 2 (Human Dignity-Respect): We should always act so that we treat other humans always as an end and never as a means only.
  • Principle 3 (Universality): Our actions must be acceptable to every rational human being, not because they have been told to accept them, but because they are rationally acceptable [thus overcoming the subjectivity risk of utilitarianism]“ -> New York Times Test”

1 principas (nuoseklumas): veiksmas gali būti laikomas tik teisingu, tai yra taisyklė, pagal kurią visi turi nuosekliai laikytis elgesio visais atvejais, be prieštaravimų.

2 principas (žmogaus orumas – pagarba): Mes visada turėtume elgtis taip, kad su kitais žmonėmis visada elgtumėmės kaip į tikslą, o ne tik kaip į priemonę.

3 principas (universalumas): mūsų veiksmai turi būti priimtini kiekvienam racionaliam žmogui ne todėl, kad jiems buvo liepta juos priimti, o todėl, kad jie yra racionaliai priimtini [taip įveikiama utilitarizmo subjektyvumo rizika]“ -> New York Times Test“
