  • rights -  individual liberties such as speech, religion, privacy, etc. 
  • justice - the maintenance or administration of what is just especially by the fair and impartial adjustment of conflicting claims or the assignment of merited rewards or punishments
  • utilitarianism - the doctrine that an action is right insofar as it promotes happiness, and that the greatest happiness of the greatest number should be the guiding principle of conduct. 
  • virtue - conformity to a standard of morality; a particular moral excellence
  • the common good - the public good; to the advantage of everyone
