In this lecture, Dr Iain Law (University of Birmingham) introduces the concept of a moral theory and thinks about what distinguishes deontological moral theories from other kinds of moral theories (e.g. virtue ethics, utilitarianism), focusing in particular on: (i) the deontological theory of Immanuel Kant; (ii) Kant's conception of the will; and (iii) his distinction between acting from duty and acting in accordance with duty (i.e. doing the right thing, but not for the right reasons). • This lecture is part of a larger course on Kantian deontological ethics.
