Primer of ethical ideas: Futuristic issue of contemporary science of social work

Abstract

In the absence of its own ethics - the philosophy of morality, from the position of superficial ethical improvisations our "contemporary" science of social work has not been successful till present day in giving a valid theoretically-methodological answer to the complex issue of human morality which makes condition sine qua non of the universal activity of social work. The first epistemological step on the way of overcoming the almost complete ethical illiteracy in this field is, most certainly, the definition on the concept-category basis of the basic definitions (concepts) of morality and ethics. Such concept-category foundation in relation to the quasi experts - promoters of contemporary trends in the social work science (which are not familiar with these concepts) present the form of primer literature for learning the basic letters of the future philosophy based ethics of social work which gives it its futuristic dimensions too.

"Savremena" nauka socijalnog rada do danas nije uspela da valjano, konzistentno-epistemološki razreši najelementarnija pitanja kompleksne moralne problematike, s čim u vezi, pod uslovom posedovanja minimuma znanja iz oblasti filozofski zasnovane etike, nije teško ustanoviti čitav kompleks nedorečenosti, zabuna, izraženog neznanja i njime saobraznih sterilnih etičkih interpretacija, što višedimenzionalno potire autentiku i dignitet potencijalno etički fundirane humanistike socijalnog rada. Zato ovom prilikom, kao izraz kontinuiteta u razobličavanju postojećeg stanja opšte etičke nepismenosti, otvaram i podvlačim zbog njihove (u pravom smislu reči) izuzetne važnosti nekoliko krupnijih pitanja, kojima će morati da se ozbiljno pozabavi, ne savremena (s obzirom da ona to nije u stanju) već"futuristički" u odnosu na savremenu, zasnovana buduća nauka socijalnog rada, i u okviru nje - filozofski zasnovana etika.
