Abstract

Progress and invention of apocalyptic means have brought mankind to radically new situation of possible self-destruction. Living in a shadow of selfapocalypse rises new basic dilemmas and questions of understanding of the sense of hu­man actions and poses as most important goal the sole existence of humankind. Could ethics as we know it today and modern political philosophy find the answer to challenges of ’apocalyptic roulette’ which humankind is facing today, or we need entirely new principles of political organization, is crucial question to which we need to find the proper answer. Keywords: progress, self distraction, apocalyptical dilemma, globalistic humanism
