The contemporary world is full of contradictions: globalization trends collide with anti-globalist tendencies; debates over the concept of "active tolerance" and the paradoxical bounds of tolerance have raged for decades; controversies on the just laws and the appropriate use of force in the pursuit of justice are still unresolved by the 21st century, and are growing more pressing every year. Within the framework of one conference, we don't expect to come to a decision of all the listed and alleged paradoxes. Our intention is to improve our understanding and to update the discussion, and it seems to be the important step towards debunking the false moral paradoxes and achieving the truth.
The international scientific conference "Theoretical and Applied Ethics: Traditions and Prospects" is devoted to the study of the most important ethical phenomena of modern society and the categories of morality and practical philosophy. The key task of the conference is to identify the theoretical and methodological foundations of the current state of ethical science, to identify the main problems and prospects for the development of scientific research in the field of theoretical and applied ethics. History has repeatedly confronted humans with the limit situations, as well as today's world issues new challenges for us. Thus, the value strategies, the choice that everyone makes in such conditions should be the direct subject of ethical research. The practice of philosophical understanding of economic, political and civil shocks in Russia has formed the tradition of ethical and philosophical reflection in the context of the transformation of reality.
