Normatywny charakter nowego porządku światowego

Abstract

The nature of being human constitutes the primary source of obligations and norms of human actions. In the religious and theological realm they are perceived as an expression of God's will, and the human mind expresses them in the form of normative laws. To give an example, life in itself is a value of exceptional normative dimension, but it is the situation of a threat to life that enhances this norm in a special way. Transplanting this way of thinking to the contemporary world and the rules governing it, we wish to discuss in this work the question of moral norms which are contained in the developing new world order. Our objective is to show that the fact and the existential meaning of the new order of contemporary world constitute an ethical challenge for contemporary people. Discussing this problem, we first spoke about the crucial elements of this order as the sources of the norm (part 1), and then we showed the subjective and formal dimension of this obligation (part 2).
