Normative ethical systems can generally be broken down into three categories: deontological, teleological and virtue ethics. The first two are considered deontic or action-based theories of morality because they focus entirely upon the actions which a person performs. When actions are judged morally right based upon their consequences, we have teleological or consequentialist ethical theory. When actions are judged morally right based upon how well they conform to some set of duties, we have a deontological ethical theory.

∙ 12y agoThere's more than one way to categorize ethical theories. Assuming that the most important question of ethics is "What should we do?", the central topic of ethics is the rightness or wrongness of actions (acts).
Assuming that the consequences of actions are relevant to their moral evaluation, the 2 systems of ethics would be the system (called "deontological") based on some feature of the action itself and the system (called "consequentialist" or "utilitarian") based on some feature of the consequences of an action.
