In this paper I argue that the most fundamental goal of any public policy is to assist the realization of social good. I take it that the idea of social good has developed differently in different political and moral traditions, and focus my analysis on the interplay of liberalism, virtue ethics and the Capability Approach. I argue that the liberal conception of social good, as espoused by its leading exponents, is somewhat problematic, and that it fails to account for meaningful civic associations. Even though liberal thinkers often prioritize an individual’s freedom and autonomy, they do not provide us with concreto principles that can facilitate the realization of these goals. I draw upon the practical functioning of leading liberal democracies, including the United States, Canada and India, emphasizing the role of normative political constraints in policy making. I conclude that the liberal conception of social good stands in an acute need of a fresh principle that can rectify the above anomalies and reinvigorate its moral force, and that such a principle can probably be constructed with the help of Amartya Sen’s Capability Approach and Aristotle’s Virtue Theory.

Marital bound between man and woman, which is what makes a family, is of indisputable value and social good. One may quote many theological and sociological arguments in support of this statement. On the other hand, one may rightly say that the radical changes in many spheres of life that has been taking place in recent times, especially after the momentous year 1989, have left their mark on the whole sphere of values and morality. Pluralism in the culture of symbols, worldview and ethics leads to – among other things – the spread of relativism of opinions regarding ethical norms applicable in marital and family life. This relativism finds its expression in arranging one’s life in the so-called alternative forms, for instance in a cohabitation, also sometimes called a concubinage, or as a single, that is not marrying. One may also notice a characteristic feature of Polish families, that is small number of children and weakening of marital bounds. The quality of the family depends on the quality of the marriage. Yearning for a happy family life, so often expressed by many respondents, is authentic. But understanding of that happiness differ wildly, with oftentimes far-reaching consequences for marriages, families and whole societies. Social and cultural changes cause disruption to normal functioning of the marriage and family, brought about by the influence of various opinion makers, who propagate alternative forms of family life.

The article presents an attempt to identify public goods, including mainly social goods, which can be made available to consumers of public services free of charge (or for partial payment). In addition, the issue of using these resources in terms of their natural limitations and maintenance costs was also discussed. The work uses the subject literature, provisions of legal acts as well as the experience of the Warsaw self-government in implementing projects aimed at performing tasks in the field of physical culture.
