The illusion of modernism (liberalism) existed mainly in the belief that chaos, filth and ambiguity of the world would sooner or later be overcome by certain systematic and rational rules. Human spontaneity, intentions, goals, feelings, and ideals were all replaced by often senseless and calculating (pragmatic) intellect. The postmodern critique with its emphasis on personal responsibility for one's neighbour, love, the common good and decentralised and disowned subject presents a serious challenge to the liberalistic pragmatism and rational calculation. Man is a social animal and not a lonely and selfish monad whose morality consists predominantly of abiding by widespread universal laws. Morality needs to be re-personalized, the source of moral action is a human being as a creature of reason and freedom. Love and care for another human being overcome the distance arising from monadic individualism, pragmatism and selfish calculation, which are replaced by closeness, interpersonality and decentralization of the subject, born from free choice to exist for another human, and translates as the new joy of being.
