Variations on the concept of Ethics

Abstract

Throughout history, thinkers have given ideas and theories I will know Ethics, but everyone agrees that it is a part of Philosophy that deals with moral acts, rules of conduct on good and evil in human beings; term developed over time. Since men live in community, the moral regulation of behavior has made Mara collective well-being necessary. Although the different moral systems were established on arbitrary patterns of behavior, they sometimes evolved irrationally, from the violation of religious taboos or behaviors that were first habit and then custom, or also laws imposed by leaders To prevent imbalances within the tribe. The moral term also tells us, how are we to behave in such a way that by acting in a certain way and according to a certain moral code we are giving a certain personality or way of being to our life. According to our customs and behaviors we shape our life and acquire our own particular way of being. That character or way of being is acquired through a series of habits and customs. Formerly it was considered that the two terms were equivalent but today it is considered that morality designates a series of norms accepted by a social group or established by a moralist. The word Ethics is a more technical expression within Philosophy and gives rise to a system of philosophical principles that are the basis of those norms.
