Summary/Abstract: Nicolai Hartmann is a representative of 20th-century German material ethic of values. In this paper I demonstrate the main arguments he gave against egoism and altruism. The arguments presented are as follows: a real egoistic tendency in a person does not result in the moral or axiological order or duty; egoism and altruism are related in a person; egoism and altruism are both one-sided positions. Hartmann affirms that egoism also has specific positive, indirect and direct values.
