Keywords:
Values, Conscience, Law of the person.Abstract
Axiology is the study of values through their relationship with the human being. Values guide behavior, they help to make choices, they determine the value of each condition; they investigate the nature, the essence and the various aspects that they bring to human culture. Value is one of the basic components in the elaboration of Law. People judge the world through value analysis and the act of living implies in the valorization of the cultural built-up. As a product of human culture, Law is thus linked to values and these are not the only elements that instigate human activity or the choices of individuals. The latter are also moved by conscience and sentiments. Inner values belong to humans and form their personality. The Law of the person guides the inner values of people since they represents the person’s essence. Values are autonomous, universal and absolute and their ultimate foundation is human conscience. Values are not the projection of the isolated individual conscience; they rather rise from the bonding of humanity’s conscience as a whole. Values are currently being degraded and the emergence of new values is possible. Unstableness and the loss of references for humanity are defined according to value crises where disbelief and the abandonment of ethical, moral and spiritual values are rife.Downloads
