Abstract

The answer is given here to the question about the place where moral values exist. It is based on the Augustinian and Thomist ethical tradition. The author defines moral values as the ideal patterns of human moral behaviour. Their objective existence is founded in the rational human nature treated in the metaphysical categories. Finally, author situates moral values in the sphere of the relative beings. Their essence consists in “being toward” (esse ad).
