This article describes the origin of Bloch's moral theory, which was formulated partly as a response to Simmel's moral relativism. It also shows that Bloch's theory is a coherent example of what Charles Taylor calls "expressivism," a contemporary philosophical attitude which emphasizes the creation of values, with its transgressive character.
