Ethical Constructivism

Ethical Constructivism is a philosophical view that moral principles are not fixed or discovered but are constructed through human reasoning, social agreements, and shared practices. It suggests that what we consider morally right or wrong is created by collaborative processes, context, and collective understanding, rather than existing independently in nature. In essence, it sees ethics as shaped by our choices, dialogue, and agreements, making moral standards flexible and evolving with human communities. This approach emphasizes the role of human agency and rational reflection in forming our moral beliefs.
