Abstract
In modern philosophy, we can see more and more distinctly such approaches to the structure of the world of values, in which purely axiological aspects are preceded and supported by ontological statements and discoveries of philosophical anthropology. This relates, above all, to the existential structure of a person, in which a specific assembly of his/her “essence” and “existence” takes place. Secondly, there are references to the triple meaning of the concept of “person”. A person is not only a psycho-physical individual substance, but also a compound subject (community, society), or a typological one (species, mankind). In each sense a subjective system of reference for values may be recognised.
