According to the [[Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy]], ideals are described thusly:
 
{{Cquote|Ideals are models of excellence. They can be moral or nonmoral, and either ‘substantive’ or ‘deliberative’. Substantive ideals present models of excellence against which things in a relevant class can be assessed, such as models of the just society or the good person. Deliberative ideals present models of excellent deliberation, leading to correct or warranted ethical conclusions. Ideals figure in ethics in two opposed ways. Most centrally, ideals serve to justify ethical judgments and to guide people in how to live. Sometimes, however, ideals may conflict with moral demands, thereby testing the limits of morality.<ref>[https://www.rep.routledge.com/articles/thematic/ideals/v-1 Ideals],  [[Routledge Encyclopedia of Philosophy]]</ref>}}
