ABSTRACT
Not ethics in a metaphysical form, but ethics in the Aristotelian form, namely that ethics is an independent ability intrinsic in the socialization process, and the specific form originates in this process. This ability makes the individual rational in searching for the ultimate good in the social context. Thus ethics is a part of rational behaviour and makes the individual able to grasp both the effects of the other individuals' actions as well as the macroscopic consequences. Ethical differences in judgements of events and developments depend only on differences in the basic comprehension of ethical behaviour, but they might be due to different comprehension of the exogenous events. Wars can be seen as a breakdown of ethics, but claiming that individuals are subjects and final causes and furthermore that individuals form the nations, we might end up in war as the ultimate political means, following Clausewitz's analysis.
