ETYKA I „SZTUKA DZIAŁANIA”. ODPOWIEDŹ JACKOWI JAŚTALOWI
ETHICS AND THE “ART OF ACTION”: REPLY TO JACEK JAŚTAL

Summary/Abstract: The adoption of the “view from here” perspective means that ethics is not treated as a completed set of the ready-made answers to moral problems. Norms are general and objective, the decisionmaking situation of the agent is individual and subjective. We always decide “here and now” and “those and not others”. The perspective of the “view from here” may be reduced but it cannot be completely freed from it. However, this does not mean that the subjective perspective cannot be reconciled with the objective one. Objective norms remain a point of reference for subjective decisions, and when we manage to objectify some element of the individual (subjective) context of our actions, it is included into the “view from here”.
