SUMMARY
ON THE FOUR BASIC PRINCIPLES OF TRA DI-
TIONAL ETHICAL CONCEPTS OF KAZAKH-NOMADS
ABOUT HUMAN BEING
The article examines the content and functions
of such paired ethical categories as “adal” (honest,
conscientious, pure, blameless, unclean, faithful, etc.),
“aram” (dishonest, unclean, filthy, malevolent, malicious,
vicious, etc.), on the one hand, “obal” (sin, sinful,
unlawful, sin on the soul, sorry, etc.), “sauap” (good
deed, good , a grateful deed, a godly deed, etc.) on the
other. From the point of view of the author of the article,
these categories functioned as systemic and semantic
principles of the traditional ethical concept of Kazakh-
nomads about human existence. In the everyday life of
nomads, these principles-categories in a certain sense
performed not only ethical, but, in a certain sense,
normative and regulatory functions, especially in the
sphere of customary legal relationships.
