- Abstract
Jean Jacques Rousseau is one of the most influential thinkers contributing to the development of modern political thought. In this respect while he is known with his thoughts about political philosophy, we can consider him as a moral philosopher. In fact the reasons enable us to make this evaluation come from, first, his claim that the moral and the political cannot be considered separately and, second, his thoughts about the human nature. By means of these, this paper deals with Rousseau’s thoughts about moral philosophy. In this paper, how Rousseau dealt with morality throughout his writings and the value of morality for the human species are in focus. In addition to the importance of the moral look in Rousseau’s critics of civilization and the modern culture are also discussed. Finally, considering the fact that Rousseau’s account of ethics is based on conscience, the emphasis on intention and integrity are evaluated as one of the most important concepts in Rousseau’s moral philosophy.
