Cicero’nun de re publica’sındaki devlet tanımı ve türleri

De Re Publica Cicero’nun İ.Ö. 54-51 yılları arasında yazdığı altı kitaptan oluşan felsefi bir diyalogdur. Filozof bu eserinde Roma siyaset tarihi ve devlet yapısı, yönetimde adaletin rolü, genel olarak devlet türleri, eğitimin rolü ve bir devlette olması gereken vatandaşlık türünü incelemektedir. Biz de çalışmamızda Cicero’nun bu eserinde devleti nasıl tanımladığını ve üç devlet türünü nasıl analiz ettiğini, temel kaynakları olan Platon, Aristoteles ve Polybius’un farklı siyaset anlayışlarını göz önünde tutup kıyaslama yaparak irdeliyoruz.

Definition and types of state in Cicero’s “de re publica”

De Re Publica is a philosophical dialogue by Cicero, written in six books between 54 and 51 BC. The philosopher discusses the history of Roman politics and its constitution of state, the role of justice in government, the types of states in general, the role of education and the ideal citizenship in a republic. In this work, we examine how Cicero defines the state and analyses its three types in De Re Publica, considering and comparing Plato’s, Aristotle’s, and Polybius’ variant political concept, as the primary sources he uses.
