Regarding Hobbes, Locke and Rousseau, the opposition is taken up within the context of social contract. The disputes on the teleological cause of state and the necessity to obey an authority on one hand, and the essence of rights of nature and the origin of law of nature on the other, we see that philosophers have put forward an idea so-called the state of nature (or natural state). Both in political philosophy and in moral philosophy, the state of nature mentioned is taken as a standpoint to refer to pre-civilization or pre-society. This study is aimed as an inquiry on the idea of the state of nature which sets the background of some thoughts like “law of nature” and “rights of nature”. However the scope of this study will not exceed the views of Hobbes, Locke and Rousseau, whose names are the first to commemorate when “the state of nature” is the case. What is more, this essay contains a concise discussion, too, on what the teleological cause of the state could be, why the state exists within the thoughts of Hobbes, Locke and Rousseau, their views about “the state of nature”, “law of nature”, “social contract” and “human nature” CR - Akarsu, Bedia, Ahlâk Öğretileri, Remzi Kitabevi, İstanbul, 1982 CR - Dent, N.J.H., Rousseau Sözlüğü, (Çev.B.Gözkan, vd.), Sarmal Yayımcılık, Ankara, ??
