The development of Hegel’s immanent approach: ancient scepticism and the method of Phenomenology of Spirit
Aksoy, Barış Engin; Çırakman, Elif; Department of Philosophy (2021-9)
This thesis tries to read ancient scepticism as a precedent of Hegel’s method in the Phenomenology of Spirit, and Hegel as the fulfillment of scepticism, as both the most radical form and overcoming or sublation of it. The intersection between Hegel’s Phenomenology and ancient scepticism is specifically located in the so-called Agrippan modes presented by Sextus Empiricus; what the thoroughly immanent procedure at work in these modes and Hegel’s procedure, in the Phenomenology, of measuring the shapes of co...
The Concepts of (dis)pleasure and pain in Nietzsche and Foucault
Karatekeli, Emre; Turan, Şeref Halil; Department of Philosophy (2016)
This thesis seeks to problematise Nietzsche’s and Foucault’s interpretations of the feelings of pleasure, displeasure, and pain. For this purpose, I firstly bring under discussion Nietzsche’s treatment of the feelings in question on a physiological and a cultural level, by dealing with The Will to Power and On the Genealogy of Morality, respectively. In this part of the study, I examine the issues of, inter alia, the critique of the overvaluation of consciousness, the ineluctable yet predominantly forgotten...
THE CONCEPT OF THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY IN THE TRADITIONAL IR THEORY
Gürsoy, Mustafa Bozkurt; Yurdusev, Ahmet Nuri; Department of International Relations (2021-7-28)
This study focuses on the concept of international society within the IR theories of Realism, Liberalism and the English School. In regards to Realism, it conceptually explores how international society is considered to be a null-conception through the works of Hobbes and Waltz. To this end, it deals with concepts such as morality, international law and particularly war with a realist perspective. Then Liberalism is explored with its fundamental theoretical differences to Realism, and liberal accounts of in...
THE FOUNDATIONALISM-COHERENTISM DEBATE IN LIGHT OF THE POST-WITTGENSTEINIAN ONTOLOGICAL ENLIGHTENMENT
Baç, Mutlu Murat (2017-05-01)
The perennial problem of the exact nature of epistemic justification has recently become even more interesting upon Laurence Bon Jour's openly converting himself to foundationalism following a long and successful career built mainly around a strong defense of coherentism cum internalism. Even though the famous debate between foundationalism and coherentism is often associated with the "technical" issues of epistemic regress, basic beliefs, and so on, in this paper I will approach the debate from the standpo...
The Ideal Of Handicrafts and the Modern Design Formation: Coincidences and Failures
Tsoumas, Johannis (Middle East Technical University, Faculty of Architecture, 2013-12-1)
Bu araştırma günümüzde modern tasarım olarak adlandırılan kavramın el sanatları kavramıyla yakından ilişkisini incelemektedir. Esas amacı, yalnızca kuramsal olarak değil, aynı zamanda karanlık Orta Çağdan günümüze uzanan bir dizi anahtar tarihsel örnekten hareket ederek el sanatlarının, Batı toplumlarında başarıya ulaşan endüstriyel tasarımın temelini oluşturduğunu göstermektir. Bu göz ardı edilemeyecek ilişkinin gelişimindeki önemli dönüm noktası 19. yüzyıl İngiltere’sidir. Çünkü bu dönem Sanayi Devrimi’ni...
