Conscience in N. Hartmann as means of rethinking modern values

Abstract

N. Hartmann’s idea of conscience as a means of actualization of values from the ideal world into the real world is relevant in the context of its application in the rethinking of modern values, which emphasize negative, pessimistic, defeatist, and fatalistic worldviews and thinking which leads to destructive ethical behavior. The purpose of the article is to examine the importance of the concept of conscience in N. Hartmann’s philosophy of values and determine the aspects of practical implementation of this concept for the rethinking of modern values since conscience is at the center of structuring of values.
