Do you agree with these criticisms (defend your answer with reasons)?Virtue ethics is one of the earliest philosophical approaches to correct behavior. It is one of the three major theories in normative ethics, utilitarianism, and deontological ethics ( Beadle and Knight, 434). Since the character is at the center of morality, the fundamental moral question is, 'What character type would a morally-sound individual have?' Utilitarian and Kantian Ethics, on the other hand, asks, 'What makes an action right?' It emphasizes a person's character as an essential element of ethical thinking. According to virtue ethics, if a person has great character, that person will always behave ethically. The contemporary theory of Virtue Ethics is presented as moral principles contradicting utilitarian and Kantian Ethics.

Also referred to as the deontological theory, the rationale for ethical behavior is not based on tradition or authoritative pronouncement but pure reason
