Abstract: Global economy enables reorganization of production in the global scale with regards
to using opportunities to reach the highest profit. A global change comes of
economic and social environment, thanks to the development, in which there are
problems, risks and threats of a global nature. In such connections, there is an active
call for humanization of economics in which the social and human sciences shall
take part. Concerning this task should Ethics, as one of these sciences, take part in
rehabilitation of an original and essential task of economics – a service for life. At
the same time, it should explicate the reasons of accepting moral norms by economic
subjects with the aim to strengthen their responsibility not only for a successful
development of global economy but also for the quality life on the Earth. Except of
the global ethics these tasks are topical also for such applied ethics such as entrepreneurial
ethics, environmental ethics, managerial ethics, marketing ethics, etc. and
these should be known to all the subjects which are somehow engaged in economics.
Keywords: economics, social and human sciences, ethics, humanization, responsibility
