Legal
Just as moral can be seen as more specific than ethical, legal is seen as most specific of the three terms. Laws are codified behaviors for members of a society enacted by a specific lawful authority. (Gifis, 1991) The law may have as its foundation moral rules and ethical truths, but it is closely allied with politics. As a result, it suffers from greater subjectivity than do ethics and morals. Laws differ not only from society to society but also from town to town. What is legal in Los Angeles, for example, may be punishable in Portland. Laws are more temporary than morals or ethics, often changed by simple majority vote or by degree. We use the word “legal” when judging an act by the most specific set of local laws that have been codified by local authority. Issues as universal as theft and as specific as jaywalking are subject to local law. (Elliott, 1992, 28-35) |
