The Logic of Moral Values According to Max Scheler

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The aim of this research is to explore the world of values by examining the philosophy of values within the Western intellectual tradition, focusing on one of the prominent philosophers who systematized ethical action and its purpose. The central question he poses is: What ought we to do?The study concludes that Max Scheler can be regarded as the Pascal of the modern age, advocating for spiritual values in opposition to material values rooted in utilitarian hedonism—values that have emerged from the utilitarian framework characteristic of Western modernity.
