      Solution

      The "Golden Mean" is a concept from Aristotle's virtue ethics. It suggests that moral behaviour is the desirable middle between two extremes: one of excess and one of deficiency. For example, courage is the mean between cowardice (deficiency) and recklessness (excess). Gandhi (A) championed Satyagraha, Kant (C) the Categorical Imperative, and Kautilya (D) a pragmatic approach to statecraft.
