To analyse the video that shows how the benefits of computering monitoring can help defeat crime these are the points that Aristotle would look at,
Aristotle virtue ethics is
interested in the question of how you become a good person.What would a good person be doing?Good actions.What’s a good action?Good actions are defined in terms
of what a good person would do.Knowing what makes a person good
and then seeing what kinds of actions the good or virtuous people perform.What are virtues? Virtues are
character traits, like honesty, generosity, chastely, bravery, courage etc.A person is good when they have
virtues.

Nico ma che an Ethics asked about
the ‘Good’ which was the aim of every action and about what could constitute a
‘final good’ Aristotelian view is that the
highest good for man was eu daimonia, which latterly means having a good
spirit, but could be translated as happiness.He saw it as a state in which a
person was fulfilling his or her potential and natural function. It expressed a
form of human excellence of virtue.This tied in with his general view
that everything had a ‘final cause’: a goal and a purpose to which it moves. If
you understand the final cause of something, you understand its fundamental essence, which finds expression in that goal.If a knife had a soul, Aristotle
argued, that is what it is there to do. What then is the essence of human kind?
What is it there to do? What is it’s goal?
