The first international conference under the name of "Theoretical and Applied Ethics: Traditions and Perspectives" was launched 15 years ago. Over the years of work, strong academic ties have formed among the participants, allowing us to think about the most complicated and fundamental issues that have never lost their relevance. The problems of today's world forces ethics to explore these new issues. An intense discussion on the opportunities of artificial intelligence is currently taking place. The problems of hostility, discrimination, violence, and injustice also need to be thoroughly examined. In contemporary reality, the role and the mission of the ethics itself is challenged. To discuss these matters, we invite the academic community to participate in our conference.
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.
