Summary/Abstract: The ethical propositions of the form e = „The fact p is good” have not a determined truth value. Like any other proposition, the truth value of the proposition e is determined only relatively to a context, arriving to „The fact p is good relatively to the context x”. Establishing the truth value for the ethical proposition e means to assert an ethical value to the fact p. This task can be accomplished either giving a value to the variable x or by its quantification. In the first case, the contextual ethical values are defined, while, in the second situation, the modal ethical values are achieved.
