Abstract

Heidegger did not establish a systematic theory of ethics, he saw moral values at the level of ontic, and avoided the ethics-related field by devoting his inquiry to the ontological field. However, the idea of linking his ontology with ethics has turned out to be an expectation. Studies on the ethics of Heidegger are generally focused on the second period because the position of ethics in Being and Time is not guiding. However, a broader analysis of highly ethical implications-bearing concepts of Heidegger's early Being and Time may allow some ethical codes to be deduced. In this study, we will be looking for an ethical draft within the framework of the concepts of “The Other, Everyone, Exactness, Conscience, and Responsibility” in Being and Time. Although these concepts have diverged from traditional ethical patterns with his intervention, they have the potential to make it possible to read the anti-ethical attitude of Being and Time in an ante-ethical manner. Discussing these potentials can provide us with an up-to-date assessment of a sound world understanding that will also lay a foundation for ethics.
