Deontologists believe the rightness of an act is derived from its logical consistency and universability. Deontologists believe that determining whether an act is right or wrong depends on the nature of the act itself in terms of its moral worth. Rather than examining the consequences of such actions, the deontologist believes that every individual has specific duties that he or she is morally required to fulfill. |
