Fundamente morale și structurile lor metafizice: de la corectitudinea politică la energiile necreate
Moral Foundations and Their Metaphysical Structures: From Political Correctness to Uncreated Energies

Summary/Abstract: This study explores the philosophical, ethical, theological and metaphysical underpinnings of moral frameworks as are represented by Political Correctness, Aristotelian virtue ethics (articulated in the Nicomachean Ethics), particularly through the metaphysical lens of St. Gregory Palama’s doctrine of the uncreated energies, applied to Christian morality. It is a Comparative Study of Political Correctness, Aristotelian Teleology and Ethics, and Human Participation in Uncreated Energies in the Christian Morality. It argues that while all three frameworks seek to cultivate human flourishing and justice, they diverge sharply in their metaphysical commitments, sources of moral authority, and conceptions of truth, happiness, political correctness. Political correctness often grounded in social constructivism, a socio-political phenomenon, but it is an implicit ethical system reflecting particular ontological assumptions about the nature of identity, discourse and harm to other, but contrasts with the metaphysical realism of both Aristotle and personal divine-human relation in Christian morality thought. By analysing their similarities, differences, strengths, and weaknesses, this study highlights the crucial role of metaphysical presuppositions in sustaining coherent ethical systems and critiques the instability of relativistic ethics from contemporary culture.
