Ethics is an area proper to the human person, which accompanies him as such throughout his life and history. There is talk of "philosophical ethics", "theological ethics", "ethics of motivations", "ethics of ends", "utilitarian ethics", "personal ethics" and "social ethics". The list would be almost endless, but it shows the variety of approaches that can be made of ethics as a human phenomenon. From a perspective that we can call "western" and a liberalism that emphasizes the individual person above the social, there are efforts to distinguish between individual ethics and social ethics. A reformed ethicist, Stob makes a stark contrast between ethics as an individual phenomenon and strictly social ethics. Stob's central thesis is that ethics is an individual matter. But entering more into the thought of this North American ethicist, in a chapter dedicated to the subject, he tries to distinguish more clearly the individual ethics from the social one. Social ethics deals with the moral conduct of individuals as well as with collective and super-individual realities. For Stob, there are four types of problems that fall within the field of social ethics. Stob does not seem to recognize that, given the conditions of life in society and, above all, that the individual is a social animal, all human conduct, that is, all ethics, is social and is lived in society, with the tensions and contradictions that such a relationship supposes
