Ethics and morals

“Ethics” leans towards decisions based upon individual character, and the more subjective understanding of right and wrong by individuals. Whereas “morals” emphasizes the widely-shared communal or societal norms about right and wrong.

Put another way, ethics is a more individual assessment of values as relatively good or bad, while morality is a more intersubjective community assessment of what is good, right or just for all.
