In this thesis, the problem of human being’s alienation from its own Self, society, species-being, objects (products) and labour, which occurs in capitalist modernity through the formation of mass cultures, is analyzed in the conceptual context of Being and Time. In this respect, it is discussed that Heideggerian philosophy is not at odds with Marxism in contrast to Theodor W. Adorno’s arguments in The Jargon of Authenticity. Additionally, the claim of this study is that Heidegger’s ontologico-existential philosophy can be effective in the analysis and solution of the problem with regard to some socio-psychological causes and effects of alienation in which the method of political economy can remain inadequate. In particular, Dasein’s free and authentic self-understanding which gets rid of the suppressive authority of publicness and the ontological Being-with Others in society in harmony with nature can introduce a revolutionary perspective into the problem of alienation. In this context, the similarities in the approaches of Marx and Heidegger on the modes of alienation are stated and the concept of alienation [Entfremdung] in Being and Time is discussed in relation to Marxist conceptions and the relevant concepts in Being and Time.

A critical evaluation of Kripke's interpretation of Wittgenstein
Karaağaç, Hasan; Sayan, Erdinç; Department of Philosophy (2004)
This thesis analyzes the relation between Kripke's rule-sceptic argument and Wittgenstein's paradox. Besides, Kripke's claim that the conclusion of Wittgenstein's private language argument is stated in PI 202 will be discussed. The thesis will also evaluate the consistency of Kripke's rule-sceptic argument independently of Wittgenstein's views.

How to follow a rule : practice based rule following in Wittgenstein
Adanalı, Yurdagül Kılınç; Ergüden, Akın; Department of Philosophy (2005)
Rule following is a central concept in the philosophy of Wittgenstein who was one of the pioneers of modern philosophy. Wittgenstein criticizes the traditional concepts of rule, because they were vague, ambiguous, and idealized. He thinks that it is not possible to isolate rules from practice and that a rule takes its meaning in a certain context or in practice. Wittgenstein̕s concept of rule following is closely related to a set of concepts: internal relation, understanding, criterion. These concepts expla...
Importance of art in authenticating dasein
Şenyurt, E. Yasemin; İnam, Ahmet; Department of Philosophy (2006)
The aim of this thesis is to try to establish a relationship between Heidegger̕s thought on authenticity and art, and to show the role of art in authentic being of Dasein. Dasein̕s being authentic depends on Dasein̕s revealing of itself as itself. In this respect art plays an important role in revealing Dasein as itself. Thus, the relation between art and authenticity can be based on alethia which is the revealing of being as itself. At the same time art plays an important role in authenticating Dasein by i...
Political legimitimacy of nation state : shifts within the global context
Ateş, Davut; Yurdusev, Ahmet Nuri; Department of International Relations (2004)
The thesis investigates the basis of possible sources of shifts in the classical conceptualizations of political legitimacy of nation state as a result of the impositions of globalization. To this end, it first suggested that we should have a theory of globalization. Globalization in the fields of economy, politics, society, culture and identity along with fragmentation provides crucial changes in the roles and functions of the state, which result in fundamental transformation in the distinctive features of...
