THE IMPLICATIONS OF ST. AUGUSTINE’S AND VITORIA'S NEW WORLD ORDER PROPOSALS ON POLITICAL THOUGHT

Abstract

It is possible to begin the social history with the following question: How do people live better/happier? Particularly, as if the history of political thought consists of efforts to find the desired answer to this ancient question. This question, naturally, brings up many more similar questions like; what is the best form of political organization? How can obedience to political authority be justified? What is justice and how can it be achieved? What is freedom? Who should manage? The search for answers to these questions which has pursued mankind since the beginning of society continued on its way with many suggestions. This ideal (or not) new world order conception which suggests that every human being could live in equality, justice, happiness, etc. generally has been attractive to people throughout history in terms of their promises. So, the subject of this study is to retrace the "ideal", universal new world order conceptions in the thoughts of Augustine and Vitoria in the post-Christian period who have effects on the political philosophy of Europe until the present day. It is thought that the study will open a door to question the operability of such proposals in terms of their intentions, promises, and results.
