The article discusses the problems of moral differentiation of society in the conditions
of the coexistence of value paradigms based on moral imperativism, tolerance, and
pluralism. The relationship between morality, ethics, and moral values is
characterized, and the types of moral values and ways of moral regulation in society
are identified. Attention is focused on the causes of spiritual degradation of part of
society and possible ways to build a humane society. The aim of the research is to
study the causes of moral degradation and ethical relativism. Research methods
include historical-philosophical, ethical-categorical, philosophical-conceptual,
contrastive analyses, and sociological surveys. The results of the research describe the
ways of moral regulation in society, the possibility of studying ethical knowledge
based on methods of cognitive ethics, and the paths of humanizing individuals and
society. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the application of complex
research methods, the examination of the problems of ethical relativism in the
information society, and the emphasis on the ethical teachings of philosophers of past
and present. The conclusions drawn from the research are that: 1. the moral
factionalism of society is inevitable in the conditions of coexistence of value
paradigms of different orientations and groups based on professional and corporate
relationships. 2. the study of a unified public morality in society is possible through
the education of a humane individual and a stable society.
