The crisis of values at the heart of the crisis in the world

There is no doubt that everyone bears some of the impacts of today’s economic crisis. But the causes of the crisis seem less certain to some theoreticians of the social life. The author examines this situation in the light of the Catholic Social Teaching. He analyses it primarily in the axiological sphere, seen both in their theoretical and practical dimensions. The problem, according to the author of the article, stems not only from detachment of economic activities from ethical rules, but a crisis of axiological reflection on social life itself. Modern dispute about axiological foundations has at its core the disagreement between personalism and liberalism. It is about understanding of the importance of axiology itself, of the concept of man, his freedom and rights, and about the shape of democracy. Whereas there are some common grounds, there is a lot of divergence of opinions, too. It is good then that the dispute be continued with the hope of coming to some agreement and arriving at common axiological foundations for social life.
