Philosophy and Thinking (Q&A)

Answer: The philosophical study of moral values and rules is known as Ethics. As a branch of philosophy it seeks to address questions about morality, such as how moral values should be determined (normative ethics), how a moral outcome can be achieved in specific situations (applied ethics), how moral capacity or moral agency develops and what its nature is (moral psychology), and what moral values people actually abide by (descriptive ethics). It is also known as moral philosophy.
