Read a random definition: APA

A quick definition of deontology:

Deontology: A way of thinking about what is right and wrong based on rules and duties that come from natural laws. It's like having a set of rules that you always follow, no matter what. For example, it's always wrong to steal, no matter what the situation is. People often talk about deontology when they are discussing moral rights and responsibilities, like owning something that you created.

A more thorough explanation:

Deontology is a philosophy that deals with ethics, rights, and duties based on natural law. It focuses on the moral obligations and responsibilities that individuals have towards others.

For example, the concept of intellectual property rights is often considered a deontological issue. This means that individuals have a moral duty to respect the intellectual property rights of others, even if it may not be in their best interest to do so.

Another example of deontology is the duty to tell the truth. According to this philosophy, individuals have a moral obligation to be truthful, even if it may cause harm or inconvenience to themselves or others.

Overall, deontology emphasizes the importance of moral duties and obligations, rather than the consequences of our actions. It encourages individuals to act in accordance with their moral principles, regardless of the potential outcomes.
