In promoting human welfare, We could deeply understand the accurate meaning of “Doing Good

to Others” and “Being just to Others”. It explains how good actions become good and how bad

actions become bad. In the deontology explains that deontology can be religious or rational

wherein religious deontology defines good rules as the rules or laws of God while rational

deontology defines good rules as the law of reason. The laws of human reason may coincide with

the laws of God, but rational deontology formulates its moral principle independent of religious

consideration. In virtue ethics, it explains the systematic explanation of Aristotle about success

and happiness. According to Aristotle “of all the goals of humans, happiness is the ultimate for it

is self sufficient (for once happy, there is nothing more to ask)” which Aristotle define as

excellence. For virtue ethics, an action done by a virtuous person is good while an action done by

a vicious person is bad.

Promoting human welfare does not just involve making sure that our actions towards people are

morally good. We could regard justice as a kind of moral virtue. Justice is giving what is due to a

person deserves to receive. According to libertarianism, a theory of justice advanced by Robert

Nozick (1993, 100-110), a just distribution is one in which no moral rights are violated in the

two processes involved in the act of distribution, The process of acquiring ownership of the

goods to be distributed and the process of transferring the ownership of the goods to be

distributed. This means, that the owner does not violate any moral rights in acquiring the good

that he distributes and in distributing such good to other people.

For instance, still it can use the principles advanced by the theories of justice as fairness and

libertarianism when drafting certain policies or deciding on certain in the workplace.

Finally, each of these theories argues for its superiority over others, it is possible to combine

them in some harmonious way or in other term harmonizing way of being good and bad.
