Gianni Vattimo (1936-) is one of the most popular European thinkers and one of the most important representatives of philosophical postmodernism. He has also become prominent outside of the philosophical circles for his political activism in supporting gay rights as well as for his position as a Member of the European Parliament. His ideas have had a wide-ranging influence on such disciplines as feminism, theology, sexuality studies and globalization. In our article, we have presented Vattimo’s original concept of “weak thought”. The expression pensiero debole (“weak thought”) refers to the theory of a weakening of existence in the times of the end of metaphysics. The consequence of weak thought should be weak Christianity and the ethics of mercy as illustrated by “bioethics without dogmas”.

Głównym celem tego artykułu jest przedstawienie relacji pomiędzy etyką i nihilizmem w ujęciu włoskiego filozofa Gianniego Vattima (1936-) oraz jego koncepcji myśli słabej. Nihilizm oznacza szeroko rozprzestrzenione zjawisko kulturowe, w którym idea nicości odgrywa kluczową rolę. Jednym z najważniejszych zadań, stojących przed filozofią współczesną, jest nie tyle przezwyciężenie nihilizmu, ile zrozumienie jego istoty i szukanie odpowiednich form etyki. Nihilistyczna etyka miłosierdzia jest możliwa, z zastrzeżeniem, że jest formą etyki słabej, która ignoruje transcendencję i jest zagrożona relatywizmem.

The main aim of this article is to outline the relationship between nihilism and ethics according to an Italian philosopher Gianni Vattimo (1936–) and his concept of weak thought. Nihilism denotes a broadly-conceived cultural phenomenon in which the idea of nothingness plays a crucial role. One of the most important tasks, facing contemporary philosophy is not so much overcoming nihilism, as understanding its essence and looking for appropriate forms of ethics. Nihilist ethics of mercy is possible, with the reservation that it is a variety of weak ethics which ignores transcendence and is threatened by relativism.
