Summary/Abstract: There are inhabited traces of the moral act. Beyond their theorization, one may see the value that can’t be spoiled by the conscious or the unconscious aspect of the changes promised. If the “desired change” is imitative, prepared or spontaneous, if it shown at some distance by reflection, or is involved in the very structure of desire, interference, or on the level of singularity and idealization, we assume that the moral act cannot pass without leaving traces. The value of the moral act would be at the same time its justification, as the good (itself vague, incomplete, diverse, or idealized and singularized) is visualized by its correlative by -what I recently named- the acceptable (more modest, less pretentious, but underlined by contrast with everything that is unacceptable). If the “desired change” lies both in debt and motivational structures of interference, and imperatives, the “excessive subjectivity” may remain in the debate, as the “reason of acceptability” itself. And in its turn, is this constantly reiterated cause or theme that indicates the traces of the moral act? Do these traces indicate the origin, non-identity, presence or design and meaning of the moral act in its aftermath, the success or failure of change?
