"THE CONCEPT OF MORAL DEGRADATION AND PRESENT CIRCUMSTANCES: AN ETHICAL ASSESSMENT"
Dr. S.R.Vyas Head,
Morality has been the insaparable part of man's personality since his existence on this planet. The question of manifestation of morality still remains a pertinent problem for ethical thinkers. In the same way moral decline and change in values and their acceptance by an individual and society places, dual problems of internal rejection and external approval causing a moral decline.

This paper endeavours to discuss and distract the emerging factors to acqaint with the concept of moral degradation alongwith the analysis of present circumstances which have engulfed individual and society.
The analysis emphasises on the theory that degradation in values is not in vaccum but a reoccupying process which is incessantly operative in present as it was in past. Conventional morality and its contents can not be taken for granted for ever and therefore the paper conclusively suggests optimistic approach towards moral degradation. This approach which is not only the demand of the day but also desirable for a modern moral man of new millenium.
