Abstract
The purpose of this text is to trace, through Adorno’s moral philosophy, the possibility of acting ethically in a false, unfair and full of contradictions world. With a view to this, we will first analyze the characteristics of said world; Immediately afterwards, we will present the need for individuals to project their actions in an indeterminate world in order to be able to subject themselves through success. Subsequently, we will state that in a society managed with all the variables fixed it is not possible for the individual to subject himself. Finally, we will trace the coordinates for the emergence of the moral subject in a context of immorality.
