Kant/What is Moral Conduct?

Abstract: A 6 page research paper that examines the moral philosophy of Immanuel Kant. Numerous philosophers have attempted to answer the question of what constitutes moral conduct. One of the most famous philosophers to do so was Immanuel Kant (1724-1804). In his text Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals, Kant outlined a complete moral philosophy that offers guidelines or "maxims" that provide a structure upon which the individual can base moral decisions. The following discussion examines the basis of Kantian morality and then compares it to the Utilitarian perspective developed by John Stuart Mill (1806-1873).
