Abstract

\r\n The private language argument contends that knowledge cannot be constructed upon a private sense or language which is sensible and knowable to only one person as the self. As contrary to the Cogito argument, it puts the public use of language as the basis of science, knowledge, communication and meaning. In the community, there are interpersonal relations as norms. The self as a person has access to his mental states by means of the public language that he or she speaks. The intentions, thoughts and feelings that make self free are acquired through the practice of public criticism in the moral community. Indeed, the rational self or a rational individual is formed through communities, not vice versa. That is to say that the human world is socially constructed in many ways.\r\n

Özet

\r\n Özel dil argümanına göre, sadece bir kişinin anlayabileceği bir dilin varlığı düşünülemeyeceğinden, bir kelimenin anlamı dilin toplumsal kullanımında ortaya çıkar. Bu manada Descartes‟in “düşünüyorsam varım” argümanında ortaya koymuş olduğu yöntemle bilgi ve anlam temellendirilemez. Dolayısıyla birey, özgürlüğünü ve benliğini salt kendinden hareket ederek değil, içinde var olduğu toplumun norm, değer ve kurallarına göre oluşturur. Bu husus dilin sosyal sunumunda ve kullanımında mevcuttur. Bu manada toplum rasyonel bireyler tarafından oluşturulmaz, rasyonel bireyler toplumun içinde var olurlar. Yeni anlam dünyası ve bilimsel paradigmalar, yeni ortak kavrayışlara bağlı olarak gelenek içinde oluşur.\r\n
