Objectivity and subjectivity of values

Image
   Differences between objectivity and subjectivity values Subjectivity is a theory that develops the idea of the value of something that  is not determined by any property inherent to it, but by the importance that an individual gives it to achieve your goals or wishes. In ethics it has the same purpuse but in a different way, which reffers to the importance that and individual conclude in a situation because his personal taste, emocional state and contextual state. In the other hand, we have the objectivity value, which refers completely to the opposite of subjectivism. Objectivity is the quality of the objective, in such a way that it belongs to or is relative to the object itself, regardless of the way of thinking or feeling that any subject may have that observes or considers it. In ethics has the same purpose, which is that refers to a fact-based, measurable, reason driven way to determine the one, right solution to any given moral problem. In this blog, I will like...

   Values and Anti-values  As we know values have a important role and impact in our life’s they teach us how we need to behave with others and are part of the morality that each one have. Values help us to develop and grow, so in that part we can create the future we want. In the other hand we have the anti-values, which are against the moral values and they consist in negative actitudes that put society in risk. In this blog I will talk about the importance of values and the disadvantages of the anti-values.  The decision that we make every day are the reflection of our values, when we use these values to make a decision we focus on what is important for us or for a group if that decision involves others.

Utilitarianism

  Ultilitarianism Is right or wrong? Ultilitarianism, is a ethical theory that determines if something is wrong or right, but it  only seeks the happiness and well-being of the majority of individuals,  was founded by Jeremy Bentham in the 18th century. In this blog, I will give my point of view in this theme and what I think that is good in this theory and what it isn't. So, even that the ultilitarianism  always has a valid argument based on the most reasonable thing to do, it has its limitations. This theory basically wants to treat all the people the same like they don't are different, what obviously is wrong because we all are different in aspects of moral, so that´s why we cannot apply this merthod cause is ethically wrong. For example: Let's say that you drive a trainwheel without brakes and you can only turn to the right or to the left. If you go to the right you will run over a person; instead on the left there is a group of eight children playing. What will ...

Nowadays, one of the uses of GMOs are that we use this to prevent crops die from insects, a example of that is the corn, it is modified to resist the insects and so you can harvest.

Feminist rights and errors

  Feminism Rights The concept of feminism according to the Standford Encyclopedia of Philosofy is that "feminism" is a term of the nineteenth century to reffer the feminist  ideologies or beliefs that are on favor of the  feminist political movements, so basically "feminism" refers to  the women's movement to achieve the equality of sexes. Women’s in favor of this movement fight for their rights even if they already have their own rights, but unfortunately they are not respected and treated as well, because of these feminists have to express in some way, even if it’s in a n ot pacific way, because the government doesn’t do nothing for these women’s. We all can agree that is okey that women express themselves, but i don’t think that is the best way to harm the other people around them, because of that people react in a negative way and have feminist in a wrong concept that’s that everything they do is only because they just want attention. In the other hand, they...

Ethics Ethics also know as moral philosophy, is a discipline of moral principles, that mostly dominate the person’s behavior or their conduct and study whats is morally right or wrong. This term is applied to any system of moral values. I think that Ethics is important for our life,  because thanks to that, people know how to behave and interact with respect, also is what talks about us for example, when you are in work or in any other area, people will recognize you because their first impression of how you treated them, w hen you meet someone new you always stand out for your attitudes and for the values ​​that your parents taught you, if you show that to other people they will have a good concept of you and they will keep talking to you. So with that, Why ethics is so important in work? Our actions not only affects us, we can affect the people with we work. Our profesional decisions mostly involve ethics. Ethical behavior is very important because not only affect us in our workp...
