Doing good deeds is commonly part of social ethics.
Part of the problem with universally defining social ethics is that there are many different elements that contribute to them. Language, race, gender and culture all come into the equation; religion and education also play a role. The standards used to enforce social ethics are also numerous, including family values, religious beliefs, morality, integrity, and so forth. Social ethics play a role in determining the consequences for various crimes. In order for societal standards to work in the face of such differences, most societies operate under a “majority rule” system where what is best for the most people becomes standard. The rights and interests of the majority can only be enforced to the extent that others are not harmed or disenfranchised, however. Majority-based social ethics usually includes sharing with others, doing good deeds, and acknowledging different viewpoints. Social ethics also typically involves acceptance and tolerance of differences. Pressing IssuesCaring for the elderly and disabled is part of social ethics. Topics like economics, immigration, and poverty and hunger often create some of the biggest questions within the social ethics realm. Concerns about the environment, homosexuality, and religious tolerance also tend to rank high on the list, along with the death penalty, abortion, and human cloning. These and similar issues often raise major concerns when it comes to how communities judge “right” and “wrong.” The role of social ethics is to provide members of society a framework for approaching controversial or sensitive issues so that everyone can peacefully coexist.
