Resumo
The article argues that the distinction between virtue (Tugend) and
good will (guter Wille) in Kant's ethics provides a key to understanding the
thesis of the centrality of virtue in contemporary Virtue Ethics. Departing
from a comparison between Kant's and Aristotle's ethics, we will argue that
the concept of excellence (areté) fulfills, in the work of the Greek philosopher,
the same function of good will in Kant, constituting moral value from the
correct reasons and of adequate motivation. We believe this approach can
contribute to stablish Virtues Ethics as an autonomous movement, alternative
to utilitarianism and neo-Kantianism, by pointing to structural divergences
between these theories due to the different roles attributed to the concept of
virtue.
