Abstract

The first part of this study, published in RHS-Revista Humanismo y Sociedad (2013) journal, showed how changes in the way we live principles and values as relative truths has led us to modify criteria and paradigms according to personal criteria or social conventions. This second part of the study aimed to discover how law students act counter to ethical principles incorporating that behavior into their personal and academic life, because in their ethic experience here is no distinction between everyday life and the academy. This study focuses on how students accept the term ethics as duty, and how they relate or separate its connotations in their professional conduct. The information was obtained from student workshops conducted in Legal professional ethics class. This study analyzed student responses from the standpoint of duty and how they take it.
