As per whose ethics Rational law is the Universal Law that holds for all and acceptable to all ?

  • A.Mill
  • B.Sidgewick
  • C.Kant
  • D.Bentham

Answer: C

The ethics in which rational law is the universal law holding for all and acceptable to all is that of Kant, so the answer is C.

Kant based morality on reason: the moral law is given by the practical reason of every rational being, it is the same for all and it binds universally, which is the formula of universal law in the categorical imperative.

Mill and Bentham (A and D) judge actions by their consequences, and Sidgwick (B) tried to reconcile intuitionism with utilitarianism, so none of them rests the law on reason alone.
