NIETZSCHEANISM AND PROBLEMS OF MODERN MORALITY

Abstract

The modern morality makes the person feel that he isn’t a small screw of the senseless machine, but the creator of the future and one of builders of itself and of this world. The similar ideas are found in the nietzcheanism which hotly defended the greatness of human spirit, purity and novelty of aims, determination to reject the decayed chains of conventions, dogmas and prejudices of the civilization, that has got to deep crisis. Nietzsche urged to overcome the laws of slave morality, which loves and protects mediocrity, may actually impede the development of the new human type appropriate to the future civilization. But he doesn’t call for absolute indifference to the nature of values and abolition of any moral criteria, as it would become self-destructive for the ordinary person. An individual himself for Nietzsche has to be the carrier of the moral law and doesn’t need in any guardianship. Free selfdetermination of the personality is the only possibility of transition to higher level of human existence, to formation of bases of a modern civilization.
