Is morality objective or subjective?
False dichotomy; objectivity is a special, rigorous case of subjectivity called "inter-subjective agreement". (1) Morality is all about supporting well being in ourselves and others. What will produce this is an empirical question.
Which of the following is one of the moral responsibilities of management?
The management have moral responsibilities to the board. The management is responsible for the performance of employees. The management is not directly responsible to the share holders, only the board is responsible to share holders. The board have delegated authority to the management and not the responsibility. The management is not directly responsible for maximizing profit.
What is ethical responsibility?
ethical means that what you do conforms to the norms and standards of what you think is right. ethical is therefor very subjective. a chinese and an american could very well disagree on what is ethical because of their different cultural backgrounds. Your ethical responsibility would be the responsibilities set forth by YOUR standards and norms. an example: i believe that living beings should not live in pain and therefor that animals should be saved from abuse. that is why i feel it is my ethical responsibility to support the RSPCA. ethics do not just apply to persons, but also to organisations. they can be anything set forth by the management of that corporation. This can be the unwillingness to use labour supplied from countries where human trafficing is used to produce.
How do objective and subjective value differ?
The best modern answers to that question which I have ever read come from the writings of Ayn Rand. There are many examples in her writing. Below are two examples:"Objectivity is both a metaphysical and an epistemological concept. It pertains to the relationship of consciousness to existence. Metaphysically, it is the recognition of the fact that reality exists independent of any perceiver’s consciousness. Epistemologically, it is the recognition of the fact that a perceiver’s (man’s) consciousness must acquire knowledge of reality by certain means (reason) in accordance with certain rules (logic). This means that although reality is immutable and, in any given context, only one answer is true, the truth is not automatically available to a human consciousness and can be obtained only by a certain mental process which is required of every man who seeks knowledge — that there is no substitute for this process, no escape from the responsibility for it, no shortcuts, no special revelations to privileged observers — and that there can be no such thing as a final “authority” in matters pertaining to human knowledge. Metaphysically, the only authority is reality; epistemologically — one’s own mind. The first is the ultimate arbiter of the second."and"Subjectivism is the belief that reality is not a firm absolute, but a fluid, plastic, indeterminate realm which can be altered, in whole or in part, by the consciousness of the perceiver — i.e., by his feelings, wishes or whims. It is the doctrine which holds that man — an entity of a specific nature, dealing with a universe of a specific nature — can, somehow, live, act and achieve his goals apart from and/or in contradiction to the facts of reality, i.e., apart from and/or in contradiction to his own nature and the nature of the universe. (This is the “mixed,” moderate or middle-of-the-road version of subjectivism. Pure or “extreme” subjectivism does not recognize the concept of identity, i.e., the fact that man or the universe or anything possesses a specific nature.)"
How do subjective and objective law differ?
Subjective and objective law is a distinction set to differentiate between the application of law onto a specific case and subject (subjective) and the principles and groundwords that exist independently of application (objective). A common distinction is that subjective law is “rights”, while objective law is “Right”.Subjective law is a set of applications of objective principles onto a specific situation. Its application differs from case to case. For example, while everyone has a right to free speech, which is an objective right, the application, extent, and sanctions encountered by those applying this principle differ from case to another. In a certain jurisdiction, one can claim the right to talk about anything, but some things cannot be said, such as blasphemy.As for objective law, it is the groundwork of subjective law. It is immaterial, objective, and positive. It is intended to be the foundation of law. Thus, it contains all fundamental principles that guide written and unwritten law. For example, in France, Article 9 of the Civil Code states : “Everyone is entitled to the respect of his private life”. Notice the abstraction and generality of this statement. It is not addressed to a specific category, although its application could somehow derogate to some exceptions, which brings us back to subjective law.
