Scanlon splits the difference between right and wrong as something is wrong because it is unjustifiable, while something is good because it is not wrong. However, Scanlon is also concerned with which forms of reasoning are justifiable. These principles would act as a basis for general agreement. The major theory of this philosophy is that an action would be disallowed by a set of principles for the regulation of behaviour that no one could reasonably reject. Kant’s theory is one of the early forms of Contractualism, a concept developed by Scanlon, an American philosopher, talks about Contractualism in his book What We Owe To Each Other.
The Categorical Imperative is characterized by Kant as a rationally necessary and unconditional principle that we must always follow despite any natural contrary desires. Kant believed there was a supreme principle of morality and he referred to it as The Categorical Imperative. The philosopher Immanuel Kant, who is referred to in The Good Place, has the theory that the rightness or wrongness of our actions does not depend on the consequences but whether or not we have fulfilled our duty. The Good Place thus provides a casual review of a wide array of relevant theoretical principles, from Kant’s work to the notion of Utilitarianism. Throughout the show, the character Chidi Anagonye, a professor of philosophy and ethics, tries to teach his morally bankrupt soulmate Eleanor Shellstrop how to live a better life and about the ethics and philosophers who have theories of how to achieve this. The Good Place is a charming and unique look at a version of the afterlife and how one can truly be selfless.
