ethic

adj. moral, pertaining to values and principles

n. group of values or moral standards which govern a society (or individual, etc.)

Ethics (via Latin  from the Ancient Greek  "moral philosophy", from the adjective of ēthos "custom, habit"), a major branch of philosophy, is the study of values and customs of a person or group. It covers the analysis and employment of concepts such as right and wrong, good and evil, and responsibility. It is divided into three primary areas: meta-ethics (the study of the concept of ethics), normative ethics (the study of how to determine ethical values), and applied ethics (the study of the use of ethical values).
