Abstract

The path of virtue is based on the readiness to self discipline and moral course of action, to self-preservation and self-development in the process of mastering of nature and social forces. The moral pattern of communitarianist is happiness, which mined by the labor. He is intellectual, optimist, follower of the free will. Transition type – is two-faced Janus. He turns his face to his heads, or to the collective. Hedonist is our comfort I, and he is conformist. The sensual pleasure is the highest good for him. For pragmatist the highest good is technology, logic, technical interpretation of though, than the call of duty. In the process of mastering of social reality by the individuals, and production of identification strategies, types of moral consciousness are playing the role of latent structures in habitus.

Summary

Introduction

Dynamics of moral consciousness incarnates in institutional and procedural dialectics. The founding father of French sociology Emile Durkheim introduced term ‘sociology of morality’ His idea to measure the condition of moral consciousness with specimens (patterns) was incarnate by Polish researcher Mariia Ossovska by the examples of belles-letter in 1949 (Ossovska Ɇ., 1987). The prerequisite of new typology of moral consciousness became the lecture of Ian Shepanskii in Polish Sociological Association «About Values of Polish Intelligentsia». He emphasized three types of values: feudal (oriented to idleness), pragmatic (capitalistic, oriented to equivalent of salary), and third type – (orientation to the value of labor and creativity). The received profile from eight types of fates may be regarded by distinguishing this or that group (Paramonova S., 1998/2014)
