Abstract
Slavery is a practice which has been applied since the earliest societies. Though this inhumane practice has been abolished in nineteenth centuryin the sense of chattel slavery, it still prevails under some other forms. Slavery is one of the worst conditions that human beingshave ever experienced. As slaves were deprived of any legal rights and social status, position of a society towards slaves might be a good indicator for the humanly quality and humanistic principles of that society. This paper compares understanding and practices of slavery in the Ancient Greek society, which is held as the basis of Western civilization, and early Islamic society, which is accepted to have laid foundations of Eastern-Islamic civilization. With this comparison, it has been tested through a critical practice like slavery, whether all democratic standards, individual rights and humanistic principles have been developed by the West, as asserted by Western political establishments

Kadim Yunan ve Erken İslam Dönemlerinin Kölelikle İlgili Anlayış ve Uygulamalarının Karşılaştırılması
Abstract
Kölelik dünyanın ilk toplumlarından beri uygulanmış bir pratiktir Bu gayri insane uygulama, bedeni kölelik anlamında on dokuzuncu yüzyılda kaldırılmakla beraber, başka bazı şekiller altında hala varlığını sürdürmektedir. Kölelik insanoğlunun tarihte yaşadığı en kötü şartlardan birini oluşturmuştur. Diğer taraftan köleler her türlü hukuki haktan ve sosyal statüden yoksun oldukları için, bir toplumun kölelere yönelik tavrı onun insane vasıfları ve insane değer verme prensipleri için iyi bir gösterge olabilir. Bu çalışmada Batı medeniyetinin temeli olarak değerlendirilen Kadim Yunan toplumu ile Doğu-İslam medeniyetinin temellerini attığı Kabul edilirken İslam toplumunun kölelikle ilgili anlayış ve uygulamaları mukayese edilmektedir. Bu karşılaştırma ile bütün demokratik standartların, ferdi hakların ve insane prensiplerin, Batılı siyasi yapıların iddia ettiği gibi, Batı tarafından geliştirilip geliştirilmediği kölelik gibi kritik bir uygulama üzerinden test edilmiş olmaktadır.
