Sources of ethics of globalization Reflection in the context of Anna Teresa Tymieniecka’s phenomenology of life

Abstract

Type: Research DOI: 10.15580/IMJGJ.2018.1.092918158 Modern times – times of globalization – which we – modern people – are the creators, pose a lot of different challenges for us. These are scientific, technical, economic, ecological and many, many other challenges. But regardless of the number of these challenges and speed of their multiplication all globalization challenges are combined into one big challenge: challenge of building the ethics of globalization. The idea is to establish rules and principles of community life in a “global village”. Nowadays, human beings need unquestionable theoretical ground that could serve as foundation for the ethics of globalization. Some kind of proposal to develop this theoretical ground is the concept of the phenomenology of life by Anna Teresa Tymieniecka. This is the proposal to look at global ethics from a cosmological perspective, and this cosmological perspective is an ontopoietic perspective.
