Vgl. ) Bei einer dritten Weise der Begriffsverwendung meint »Ethik« die akademische Moralphilosophie. Und um diese geht es im vorliegenden Band aus der Reihe »Grundwissen Philosophie«. [8] Was ist Moral? In philosophischen Seminaren oder in alltäglichen Gesprächen taucht immer wieder die Frage auf, was denn eigentlich Moral ist. Man könnte nun auf die augustinische Antwort auf die Frage nach der Zeit zurückgreifen: Wenn mich niemand danach fragt, weiß ich, was sie ist. Damit wollen wir uns nicht zufriedengeben, vielmehr soll die Frage nach der Moral die leitende Frage dieser Monografie sein.

Das griechische »deon« heißt im Deutschen Pflicht. Darum spricht man in der Ethik von der Deontologie, wenn man die Pflichtenethik meint, die besagt, dass man einer Pflicht unbedingt nachkommen soll. Wir kennen ganz unterschiedliche Positionen der Deontologie, meist jedoch wird sie mit dem Namen Immanuel Kant (1724–1804) verbunden. Monistische Deontologie: Immanuel Kant Zu Kants Moralphilosophie gibt es bereits hervorragende Darstellungen. (Vgl. etwa Schnädelbach 2005, 73–94) Darum will ich hier ausführlicher auf die moralische Motivation und die Pflichten gegen sich selbst eingehen, darüber hinaus auf die Supererogation, deren Darstellung hier systematisch passt.
