Abstract (2. Language):
When S. P. Hungtington wrote the article called "Clash of Civilisation"
in 1992, the subject discussed was which criteria are accepted as the basic to
form the new balances after the cold war. As Huntington wrote these problems
in the political and the west-centre ideology frame he continued a very
important discussion of the new global system. Indeed, the opinion of "clash of
civilisation" is dominant in the present global system while stated by
Hungtington , indeed the criticism of this idea is debated in modernism and
post-modernism.
On the other hand, Ziya Gokalp was an important name between the
period covered from the end of the 19'h century and the beginning of the 2d
h
century . This period, was when the Ottoman Empire was falling and the
Turkish Republic was founded. Gokalp started his works in II. Me$rutiyet, but
he completed his works in the years of the mono-system of Kemalism. Although
he was a positivist, idealism together with solidarist-corporatist opinion
revealed itself in Gokalp's theory and also he referred to Durkheim's theory to
construct his relative democratic theory.
His syntactic approach when considering standard judgement during the
studies of the social realisations and objective conditions during his
examination of universal theories was not different to that of the EI will argue
whether European thinkers of the 19'h century who tried to find the syntax
idealism and the positivism.
I want to compare Hungtington's definition of civilisation and the
declinations of universal and international civilisation with the ones Gokalp
defines in his books "Tiirkle$mek, jslamla$mak, MuaSlrla$mak, 1917;
Tiir/cfiiliigiin Esaslarz, 1913". I will argue whether there is a new wiry to
consider the dual values in Gokalp where his separated civilisation (that means
are universal values) and "hars" (that means national values) while comparing
these Jactors which are used together by Hungtington in the concept of
civilisation.
