An Analysis of Kuçuradi’s Concept of Value

Öz

Although the concept of value is often addressed in terms of personal perspectives, cultural differences, and relativism, in Ioanna Kuçuradi’s philosophy it is grounded as a concept related to the existential possibilities that human beings possess as a species. In this context, the aim of this article is to analyze the concept of value within Kuçuradi’s distinction between value and evaluation and to reveal the determining role of correct evaluation in ethical life and human rights. In line with this aim, the initial part of the study will briefly examine the definitions, types, and the general framework of the concept of value, and will address the philosophical grounds of Kuçuradi’s approach to the problem of value and evaluation. Subsequently, the role of evaluation in understanding value will be examined from Kuçuradi’s perspective, and it will be argued that evaluation should not be limited to subjective interests and temporary judgments, but rather should serve to reveal the qualities inherent in the object itself. Within this framework, the distinction between value attribution and value judgment will be clarified, and the philosophical significance of correct evaluation will be established. It will then be emphasized that stereotypical evaluations lead to ethical conflicts and value-related problems, whereas correct evaluation constitutes a fundamental condition for living in a genuinely human way, thereby opening the discussion on the ethical dimension of value. In the final stage, the concept of value will be analyzed in terms of its practical implications for human life, and it will be argued that, in Kuçuradi’s perspective, human rights should be understood as universal ethical principles independent of cultural norms. As a result, the study demonstrates that a proper understanding of value is not only a theoretical necessity but also a practical one, and that the protection of human rights is possible only through an understanding of evaluation grounded in knowledge of value.
