Abstract
The nowadays world is developing unsustainably. Enormous technological progress can be observed. As a matter of fact, our technical abilities to change the world are so powerful that they may even lead to its destruction. However, the almost geometric progress of our technical abilities to change the world leaves behind the development of social sciences that would allow answering the question of what values these changes would serve?
