Ethical theories like Utilitarianism, associated with John Stuart Mill, Deontology by Immanuel Kant, and Moral Relativism help us understand how to make moral decisions in real life. Utilitarianism focuses on the greatest good for the greatest number, but it may ignore individual rights. Deontology emphasizes duty and moral rules, yet it can be rigid in difficult situations. Moral relativism highlights cultural differences but may weaken universal values. These theories show that ethical dilemmas are complex and require balancing consequences, principles, and context. Overall, they teach us responsibility, integrity, and open-minded thinking in decision-making.
