GODANA VLAJIC, VICE PRESIDENT, SERBIAN WRITERS ASSOCIATION, BELGRADE, COMMENTS ON ETHICS.

And someone, our Serbian nation is immensely proud of – the no 1 in the world tennis champion Novak Djokovic is ethical in every sense – dedicated, interested.
It is crucial to have a goal. To strive. To get up again and fight back every time. To be true to yourself. To be a professional. To be ethical in every sense. To take responsibility and stand behind your actions. To be able to apologize when needed. To forgive. To be humanitarian and humane at every turn as Djokovic is! And, most of all to believe. Isn’t his a good example of ethics in action today?
Alas, today, it is difficult to be always “ethical”. To please everyone and everywhere in accordance with Kant’s categorical imperative. Today, compromises prevail everywhere and in culture too.
It’s hard to be a good person more than ever with fake news and data. It’s hard to be ethical in this fast and often fake reality. But we can certainly try. And exchange of our thoughts on this unique Academic platform can help.
