Abstract

Ethics is an instrument of the orientation of human beings, which allows selecting the bases that correspond to human dignity. However, it is constantly rethought according to the context in which it is considered. This phenomenon is particularly important in the science-technology relationship that is occurring in the digital context. In this environment, ethical dilemmas that threaten social development are occurring particularly rapidly. Consequently, this article aims to reflect on the dilemmas that arise in the science-technology relationship in the digital context. For the development of the article, the qualitative research paradigm was applied, which allowed, from the inductive and deductive, to identify the bases of the ethical dilemmas that arise in the digital environment in the science-technology relationship. The central idea of the research is that in the area of informatics and the digitalization to which it leads, a specific type of ethics is being born, which is not reduced to the simple delineation of the rules of conduct, but on the contrary, it supposes the inquiry about the real modifications that are taking place in the moral relations, referred to the decadence of old moral reasoning and the birth of new ones that define the objective behaviors that derive from the development of informatics.
