Summary/Abstract: Simplified approaches to extremely complex phenomena of human morality even today, after more than a century in development of science of social work, primarily conditioned by still underdeveloped ethics - philosophy of moral, in theory and methodology of social work cause numerous cognitive doubts, unexamined postulates and simplified laic interpretations. A typical example of this thesis is the ethic sphere of deontology (branch of philosophy dealing with obligations and duties), in the field of social work vulgarly minimized and narrowly reduced to ethical codes - prescribed norms and instructions for professional behavior of social workers in their career. The only correct way for overcoming these deontological chimeras is certainly a systematic development of philosophy of moral within the science of social work, on the rich spring of ethics as an important segment of history of philosophy which in a form of consistent entity should offer right replies to cognitive dilemmas about the source of moral, manner of establishment of moral, active forms of moral and moral principles and purposes, immanent to the universal nature of this authentic humanistic activity.
