Interesy i wartości, użyteczność i godność - o potrzebie interwencji w moralne gry językowe.

The analyses included in this article are meant to oppose two semantic dichotomies included in the title. Interests and values in the light of the article stay in a certain continuum and strict connection. Utility is axiological and instrumental structure of civilization but it develops owing to the capacity to live and realize values, especially absolute ones. They are included in the idea of human dignity and defined in religions. Public discourse as a language-game often deforms axiological intuitions of values and attempts to arrange and systematize them. Hypothetically it results from the mentioned dichotomy generating juxtaposition of the order of interests and utility with the order of values and dignity. The theory which overcomes this situation is needed.
