- Abstract
The paper justifies the idea that the Russian society faces not only the process of destruction of the national ethical culture but rather destruction of habitual conception of the national culture. Differentiated approach to the problems has enabled the author to come to such a conclusion. On the basis of this approach the author concludes on the polyvariant character of the national moral culture. Traditional moral culture, aristocratic moral culture (that started to transform into “intelligent” mode of morality in the second half of the XIX century), pragmatic (business) moral culture and the system of nihilistic morals and behavior have been presented in the paper as these variants. On the basis of the cited ethical/axiological studies the author presents the systems of ethical values of each of currently functioning variants. It is suggested that without organization of ethical/cultural education in the social conditions being formed nowadays it is impossible for a human being to form consciously an optimal version of the individual moral culture
