MORAL TELEOLOGY IN ETHICAL CRITIQUE OF THE ECONOMISM

Abstract

The paper revealed the moral teleology in terms of ethical critique of the economism. Responsibility as an ethical category is interpreted in terms of business ethics. The genetic relationship between the economy and morality is considered. The alternative interpretation of ideas of the economism in business ethics is identified. The influence of ethical responsibility to the formation of new styles of economic and management thinking is revealed. It is noticed that today the business is considered not only in terms of its economic parameters but also in terms of its role in the life of communities and societies. The scope of business ethics is the problem of social responsibility, which creates a new type of economic thinking and new managerial values. The ideas of the economism are not disappear from socio-economic life of person, however, we can find an alternative interpretation of ethics in business. It is presupposed that business organizations take on an ambitious mission to reduce the negative environmental impact of human activity and improving situation of people on a planetary scale, and that is important in the formation of new styles of economic and management thinking, which is the main principle responsibility. Revaluation of economism, therefore, becomes philosophical guideline of business ethics, which introduced the theme of moral teleology as the main goal of economic activity in general and in particular economic actor.
