Here’s a maximal chain of concepts related to normative ethics:
Value -> Worth -> Aesthetics -> Beauty -> Love -> Virtue -> Belief -> Faith -> Morality -> Ethics -> Normative Ethics -> Deontological Ethics -> Kantian Ethics -> Utilitarianism -> Act Utilitarianism -> Rule Utilitarianism -> Virtue Ethics -> Aristotelian Virtue Ethics -> Eudaimonia -> Moral Pluralism -> Principlism -> Particularism -> Rights-based Ethics -> Contractualism -> Care Ethics -> Feminist Ethics -> Environmental Ethics -> Animal Ethics -> Business Ethics -> Bioethics -> Medical Ethics -> Justice -> Distributive Justice -> Retributive Justice -> Restorative Justice -> Freedom -> Responsibility -> Autonomy -> Dignity -> Happiness -> Altruism -> Compassion -> Forgiveness -> Purpose
