Integrity Building: Philosophical Aspect
6
Deontological Rule-based approach, focusing on obligation and duty, similar to the orientation found in the Geeta. Since attention is directed to the act itself, this approach is non-consequentialist. Do the right thing. Do it because it's the right thing to do. Don't do wrong things. Avoid them because they are wrong. FOCUS: WHAT IS RIGHT
7
Teleological An approach that focuses on the consequences of the action, one that conceives of ethics as concerned with measuring the amount of goodness, or badness, arising from behavior. Attention is directed towards assessing the consequences of a particular action rather than examining the act itself. FOCUS: WHAT IS GOOD
8
Existential Attention is directed squarely on the individual. Concepts such as authenticity, which refers to how true the person is to himself or herself, integrity, and genuine-ness are factors that must be considered in judging each individual act at that particular time within the context of the unique circumstances prevailing. FOCUS: WHAT IS AUTHENTIC
