'''Respect''' denotes both a positive [[feeling]] of [[esteem]] for a [[person]] or other [[entity]] (such as a nation or a [[religion]]), and also specific [[actions]] and conduct representative of that esteem. Respect can be a specific feeling of regard for the actual [[qualities]] of the one respected (e.g., "I have great respect for her [[judgment]]"). It can also be conduct in accord with a specific ethic of respect. Rude conduct is usually considered to indicate a lack of respect, whereas [[actions]] that honour somebody or something indicate respect.

Specific ethics of respect are of fundamental importance to various [[culture]]s. Respect for [[tradition]] and legitimate [[authority]] is identified by Jonathan Haidt as one of five fundamental moral [[value]]s shared to a greater or lesser degree by different societies and [[individuals]].[1]
