Moral hierarchy

A moral hierarchy is a hierarchy by which actions are ranked by their morality, with respect to a moral code.

It also refers to a relationship – such as teacher/pupil or guru/disciple – in which one party is taken to have greater moral awareness than the other; or to the beneficial hierarchy of parent/child or doctor/patient.
