The relationship between ethics and education is approached in three aspects: the ethical education, understood as the educational initiative that tries to help the learner become ethical; the pedagogical ethics, that deals with the educator’s ethics of action; and the ethics of the community of educators, that looks into the ethical questions involved in the collaboration of educators in similar pedagogical projects. The philosophic and pedagogical thoughts of Martin Buber were chosen as a proposal that differs from both ethical dogmatism and ethical relativism. Instead of imperatives of ethical action, a description of attitudes that helps to identify the way to an ethical life can be found in Buber. In the book, “The way of man according to the teachings of Hasidism”, Buber uses legends that express the ethical-existential road that a man should take. The intention of our interpretation of this proposal by Buber is to extract the religious/mystic content that these legends carry and present the anthropological and philosophical fundaments his thoughts on ethics.

Keywords : Martin Buber; Ethical Education; Pedagogical Ethics; Ethics of the Community of Educators; Dialogue.
