The answer is "universal ethical principle".

According to Kohlberg, the 6th and last phase of moral development is the universal ethical principle orientation. At this stage, universal and dynamic qualities, for example, nobility, regard, equity, and uniformity are the directing power behind the advancement of a by and by significant arrangement of moral standards. People at this dimension of improvement trust these moral standards should manage their activities to the exclusion of everything else, including recently settled guidelines, laws, and social contracts.
