How do utilitarian and deontological views of good character compare with aristotle’s view? a. utilitarians and deontologists disagree with aristotelians on the importance of good character as a motivator. b. utilitarians and deontologists say that good character is of no importance to carry out one’s actions or duties, while aristotelians claim it is central. c. utilitarians and deontologists begin with an account of moral action and base the concept of good character on that, while aristotelians begin with an account of good character and describe right actions as those such a person would do. d. aristotelians say that good character is not important to carry out one’s actions or duties, and utilitarians and deontologists agree.

The correct answer is C. Because between Utilitarianism and deontology have similarities where morality is based on the concept of character in that case, where the focus is subjective. Whereas Aristotelianism is more focused on things that are direct/real, where what is focused is objective.

Further Explanation

Normative Ethics are Ethics that show judgments about what is good and bad, and what must be done by humans.

Utilitarianism is a theory in terms of normative ethics which states that the right action is an action that maximizes use (utility), usually defined as maximizing happiness and reducing suffering. "Utilitarianism" comes from the Latin word util, which means useful, useful, beneficial, or beneficial. Deontology is a normative ethical view that assesses the morality of an action based on compliance with regulations. This ethic is sometimes called the "obligation" or "bond" ethic because regulations give obligations to someone. Kant stated that a person must act on his obligations if he wants to do something morally right. Then, Kant also emphasized that actions are considered right or wrong not based on their impact, but based on acting intentions. Aristotelianism is a view that bases the truth of human knowledge not on a world of ideas that is transcendent inseparable and separate from the things of everyday experience as in Platonism, but on the forms (ideas) contained in objects and which relate to human concepts that are objective and real. Sensory experience and intellectual abstraction work together in the formation and development of human knowledge.
