Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article is to present the concept of values (created by Brzozowski) as a way of recovering from a philosophic crisis caused by positivist paradigm and modernist world-view resulting from it. Brzozowski based his philosophy on Kant and Fichte philosophy and the central category of his concept is value. He assigns value ontological functions and presents his vision of reality, which is alternative to positivist approach. His metaphysical theses are groundwork for critical social theory inspired by Marx idea.
