title: [The axiologic structure of the human].
abstract: The essential characteristic of human being demands unveiling the variety of values that constitute it and create a specific "axiological structure". The main features of this structure are as follows: 1. the axiological structure of human being is radically individualistic; 2. the above structure comprises different types of values (not only strictly moral ones); 3. the structure in question is hierarchical; 4. the axiological structure comprises both positive and negative values; 5. the axiological structure contains within itself both deterministic and indeterministic factors; 6. the axiological structure is dynamic; 7. the axiological structure is dialectic; 8. the axiological structure is made up of both the actually existing and potential values, as well as the realized and merely postulated values; 9. the axiological structure may be characterized by both the harmony and disharmony of its component elements (values); 10. the axiological structure has a teleological character: its most significant "determining" factor is man's attitude towards values.
