THE SEARCH FOR UNIVERSAL ORDER FROM LOGOS TO THE CONSTITUTION IN STOIC PHILOSOPHY

Öz

This article examines the Stoic understanding of cosmopolitanism within the context of legal and constitutional thought, evaluating the impact of the Stoic doctrine of natural law on modern human rights and the global constitutional order. The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate how the central Stoic concepts of logos, living in accordance with nature, and cosmopolis establish a nexus between individual liberty and universal law. Methodologically, the study employs a combination of philosophical interpretation, conceptual analysis, and historical-systematic comparison. The research concludes that Stoic thought, by predicating the individual’s participation in the universal order on reason and virtue, constitutes the moral foundation of modern human rights and constitutional legitimacy. Through the balance it strikes between inner freedom and social justice, Stoic philosophy offers an ethical perspective to the contemporary understanding of global constitutionalism. Thus, this study reinterprets Stoic cosmopolitanism not merely as a historical philosophical legacy, but as a normative paradigm directly related to the ethical foundations of global constitutionalism.
