摘要：Ethical thinking about problems in contemporary economic theory and practiceis largely becoming an imperative to the human civilisation perseverance. Growing global economic inequalities are increasingly threatening to become destabilising factor to both world economic flows and world peace, which is a condition sinequa non to human development. The author analyses the link between ethics and economics by taking into consideration the very roots of economic science. By factually describing the growth of global economic inequalities, he tries to point tothe need of further in-depth ethical thinking within the economic science about itself, and about the management of global economic flows, by which the value of solidarity as the highest integrative value of human community is ignored.
