| description | In this study, the fact that the ethics or moral education of today does not achieve its objective and falls behind the conditions of modern society and the global world will be argued and this opinion will be discussed in the case of Turkey. In today's world where the use of communication and media tools becomes rapidly widespread and influences societies in all the world, basing ethics merely on religious morality or social values is not only unrealistic but also conflicting. Therefore, it seems necessary to accept a universal base consisting of top priority values in which morals do not depend on the time, space, society or the individual. In this respect, this study will argue that ethical thinking and behaviour should be based on secular and global values instead of religious and traditional ones and structuring the curriculums accordingly will be suggested. This will also be in opposition to the micro-moral forms generated by postmodern thought and the relativization of the ethics. |
