Abstract

The analysis of moral subject in consequentialist ethics (as a kind of nonutilitaristic consequentialism) aims to show, that moral subject is of basic importance for it regardeless to the fact, that its analysis focuses predominantly on action and its concequences. It is the moral subject, which enables the action and its consequences to be performed. So understanding the conditions of moral subject's action means understanding the moral subject itself. This understanding draws upon the typology of moral subjects that makes the prediction of certain kinds of action as well as of their consequencies possible.
