The well-known Aristotelian scholar Sir David Ross (1877-1971) is a Deontologist in contemporary ethics. He claims that the observance of morality is one's responsibility as a human being, not for any utility or effect. Such a concept is similar to the idea of Dong Zhongshu, a preeminent Confucian in the Han Dynasty--“Doing the right thing without utilitarian considerations.” This paper is based on Ross's major works, The Right and the Good (1930) and Foundations of Ethics (1939), discussing the most important concepts of his moral theory--Prima Facie Duty. The argument of this article will first interpret the meaning of Prima Facie Duty, then discuss his moral theory, and finally talk about Ross's role in contemporary ethics.
