Categorical Imperatives Immanuel Kant
Consequentialism is a stance in ethics, which determines the value of an action based on the results, or the consequence of that action. Consequentialism is not concerned with the means of action unlike deontological ethics. Consequentialist theory is ethics are concerned with who consequences are being concerned about; determining how to weigh all the consequences involved. mperatives are statements about what ought to be done, and in this case Immanuel Kant is making a general point about morality here, as to opposed to other things. The categorical imperatives Kant discusses about are commands to be followed.
