Ethical Perspective, Ethical Questions and Ethical Guidelines

An ethical perspective is the way people view life, situations, or their positions in terms of what they believe is right. It helps identify and distinguish concepts of good and bad and enables systematic thinking to solve problems from different perspectives.

The primary ethical perspectives can be categorized as responses to life questions and what is believed to be right.
