Summary: | Today, debates and discourses developed over the concepts of civil society and political
society are usually made through religious discourses or religious identities, and the individual
emerges as a problem of emancipation. In his “Jewish Question”, which Marx wrote during his
youthful period with Bauer’s thoughts, it is thought that the religious identities and rhetoric
accompanied the present debate about the emergence of the emancipation of individuals in
social and political contexts. It is thought that this problem, which emerged as the problem
of individual liberation or citizenship, and which is regarded as a Jewish problem and
emerged in different forms in different geographies, is the result of the fact that the religious
identities can not be torn from the religious part of the world. Another reason for the lack of
emancipation of the individual is the understanding of colonialism that is at the core of the
capitalist system. In today’s society, it wants to keep up with the existence of religions or to
keep up with the capitalist system and wants to influence the capitalist system with state
policies by making itself active in the political arena. Judaism and Christianity in this context
religion, the effects of the formation of capitalist society, will be discussed from the rhetoric
of Marx and Bauer. The issue of the citizenship identity of the individual in this study will be
addressed through the relationship between civil society and political society. There will also
be mentioned here some other thinkers (Hegel, Feuerbach etc.) that affect Marx’s ideas about
civil society and political society, besides Marx and Bauer. Civil society, citizenship, liberation
of religion, political emancipation, the effects of emancipation of individuals such as the state
will be handled through the Jewish example. Prior to this assessment, a better understanding
of the subject will be addressed to the civil society and state relationship that Marx generally
refers to in his other works.. |
