Visualising Virtue Ethics
This resource has been developed to support the teaching and study of Aristotelian Virtue Ethics through visual frameworks and structured explanation.
Designed for teachers, students and tutors, the resource helps learners understand how virtue ethics differs from consequentialist and deontological approaches to morality.

• strengths and criticisms of virtue ethics
