Abstract: This study contributes to the exploration and presentation of contemporary ethical research, highlighting the innovative values these efforts have introduced in seeking appropriate solutions to the Western moral crisis-a crisis brought about by conflicting philosophies.A distinguishing feature of the two thinkers examined in this study, Axel Honneth and Virginia Held, is their strong desire to restore the value of the human being as the essence of existence.They approach ethical issues with a realistic tone, particularly in the domains of justice, rights, and care-approaches aimed at preserving human existence and dismantling long-standing centralities and conflicts.Through this study, we aim to uncover two different models in contemporary moral philosophy and to identify the common ground between them in order to observe new conceptual shifts, while also diagnosing the specificities of each philosophical model under review.
