Artykuł prezentuje badania własne stosunku studentów warszawskich uczelni do wybranych inicjatyw prospołecznych w perspektywie wiary w sprawiedliwy świat Melvina Lernera i teorii postmaterializmu Rolanda Ingleharta. Rezultaty badania wskazują, że odpowiedzialność osoby - potrzebującej pomocy - za sytuację, w której się znalazła, obniża gotowość do udzielenia jej wsparcia. Poparcie dla inicjatyw proekologicznych okazało się niskie.

The results of the study show that the responsibility for one’s own situation decreases the willingness to support the person in need. The support for proecological initiatives turned out to be low.

This article discusses the sources and motivations of human behavior in the moral dimension. Starting with the ethical perspective, selected research in the field of social psychology on unethical behavior and its possible causes including Stanley Milgram’s experiment, which was inspired by the experience of Nazism and the Holocaust, is presented. This article points out that behavior defined as ethically reprehensible does not always have to be the result of ethically reprehensible motives.

Artykuł podejmuje źródła i motywy ludzkiego zachowania mającego wymiar moralny. Zaczynając od perspektywy etycznej przedstawia wybrane badania z zakresu psychologii społecznej nad nieetycznym zachowaniem i jego możliwymi przyczynami, m.in. eksperyment Stanley’a Milgrama, inspirowany doświadczeniem nazizmu i Holokaustu. Wskazuje, że zachowania określane jako etycznie naganne nie zawsze muszą wynikać z nagannych etycznie pobudek.

The aim of the paper is to describe and analyze the activities of Helen Ukpabio, a Nigerian preacher, who operates in the Akwa Ibom state. She combines elements of Christianity with African traditions in order to induce the fear of witches in people. Her activities bring forth massive expulsions of the accused of witchcraft children from their homes and villages. The Nigerian’s actions have met with a protest of the humanitarian organizations defending human rights. The article attempts to analyze the phenomenon in the social and cultural context, as well as to reflect on it from the perspective of universal humanistic values.
