Moral particularism
Moral particularism may refer to the claim that there are no universal moral principles. A less extreme version is that there are universal moral principles, but that these are at best uncertain crutches, the moral status of an action being dependent on the particular context.[1][2]
Kevin MacDonald has contrasted claimed Jewish "moral particularism" with claimed Western "moral universalism", claiming that traditional Jewish ethics "is based fundamentally on the group status of perpetrator and victim. It’s okay if the victim is from a different group. And within the group, ethics is structured so that the group as a whole benefits: What’s good for the Jews."[3]
