Deontology is an ethical theory that emphasizes the importance of rules, duties, and obligations in moral decision-making. According to deontological ethics, actions are considered morally right or wrong based on their adherence to specific rules or duties, regardless of the consequences. This approach is often contrasted with consequentialist theories, such as utilitarianism, which focus on the outcomes of actions. The most well-known proponent of deontology is the philosopher Immanuel Kant.
