摘要
It is often assumed that neo-Aristotelian virtue ethics postulates an obligation to be a good human being and that it derives further obligations from this idea. The paper argues that this assumption is false, at least for Philippa Foot's view. Our argument blocks a widespread objection to Foot's view, and it shows how virtue ethics in general can neutralize such worries.
