Abstract

To understand the Schelerian concept of environment (Umwelt) —which refers to a subjective structure of conative or practical nature, superimposed on the world’s ob-jectivity (Welt)—, it is necessary to elucidate the meaning of a lesser-known category: that of value “effectiveness” (Wirksamkeit). Only what is “effective” on me by virtue of its values belongs to my practical environment. I intend to revive this technical concept and show its crucial relevance to the problem of the environment constitution. In partic-ular, the distinction between the objective “value” and its subjective “effectiveness” separates Scheler’s theory from any kind of irrationalism. Secondarily, I consider rea-sonable to defend this position against Dietrich von Hildebrand’s critical alternative.
