The major changes in the world as a result of the scientific-technical revolution leads to the analysis of the fundamental ethical considerations based on the Marxist concepts. The world of objects generated by the human activity makes the whole development of the human senses and psychology be dependent on the man´s consciousness. The paper analyzed, among others, some concepts that cause a rupture in the contemporary scientific thinking focused on bioethics, holistic environmentalism, second order epistemology and complex thinking, which are traits that characterize the development of the present society, given the emphasis on science, technology, technique, and accelerated change in the social life that may also give rise to dehumanizing characteristics.
Palavras-chave : bioethics; holistic environmentalism; second-order epistemology; complex thinking.
