metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The traditional values of truth, justice, shame, conscience, responsibility, duty, forgiveness,
  and love in the process of civilization give way to functional and formal relations. A new impetus in this direction is given by digitized technologies that open up the possibility of making
  ethical and legal decisions not by people, but by machines. It is about formalizing morality
  and law, creating algorithms for making assessments and decisions that could be programmed
  and executed by artificial intelligence. Fears are caused by the fact that a person in the face of
  digital rights ceases to be a person, a subject, becomes an element of the law. But, given that
  the “human factor” often turns into corruption, we have to admit that the formal approach is
  more objective than emotional assessments based on sympathy. Therefore, in the Critique of
  Practical Reason, I. Kant contrasted the ethics of feeling with morality based on duty, which
  the thinker defined as the law of freedom. Obviously, the existing ethical and legal norms
  require a change or addition of new rules governing the behavior of people in situations that
  has not been encountered before. This problem arises in the context of the transition from an
  estate society to a civil one. As man became more and more tightly enmeshed in economic and
  social orders, he was already thinking according to the formula of nothing personal. The article
  discusses the problem of substantiation of rational and emotional prerequisites of ethics
  and law. Models of ethical and judicial decision-making are proposed, including an analysis of
  the specific application of formal norms and laws, taking into account moral values.
