| Definition Of: |
Teleological ethical theory
Concerned with ends or the good rather than with moral obligation as such. Considerations of moral value have priority over considerations of moral obligation. Concepts of obligation, such as duty, ought, or right are definable in terms of concepts of value. Rightness is dependent on or connected in some way with the goodness or value of action or consequences.
