Kantianism is a philosophical theory created by a man named Immanuel Kant. According to Immanuel Kant or Kantianism, his theory emphasizes contemporary positions dealing with the philosophy of mind, epistemology and ethics. For example, Kant believes that people should not be treated as an end nor as a means to an end, because it is considered unethical for a person to use other people for their own personal gain simply because – according to Immanuel Kant – people have value. In addition to the following, Kant also talks about the two types of good and what is considered good in aspects of Kantianism. According to Kant, there are two types of good: intrinsic good and extrinsic good. Intrinsic good means that the good must be good and in itself while extrinsic is a good that is good but not good and not in itself (Page 71…). Finally, there are the imperatives that Kant talks about when reflecting on the theory called Kantianism. For example, the first imperative is called hypothetical imperative while the second is called categorical imperative. Hypothetical imperatives – unlike categorical imperatives – depend on the context of the situation, while categorical imperatives do not depend on the context of a situation because they are universal. As a result, they are both relative and contingent and form to produce a certain outcome or consequence that has nothing to do with morality. That being said, Kantianism is a theory based on how one should act – while simultaneously focusing on the morality of an action – in relation to the consequence(s) of an action. Furthermore, the principle that hypothetical imperatives are both relative and contingent whenever a certain outcome or consequence...... middle of paper ......ver, given the fact that Jeans Company – LM Pharmacy – is based in Paris, Virginia and that he used a local Internet cafe to access his company's security system – to pose as a licensed health care provider to save his nephew – Jean would technically fall under of the “rights and duties” of the social construction of LM Pharmacy with the governance of Virginia as an employee of the State. Therefore, John's actions are not justified under social contract theory. Works Cited “What is financial fraud?” http://www.bnm.gov.my/microsites/fraudalert/01_what.htmQuinn, J. Michael.
