Azınlık Raporu: Determinizm - Özgür İrade Paradoksu ve Gözetim
Minority Report: Determinism - Free will Paradox and Surveillance

Summary/Abstract: Science-fiction cinema, which offers a foresight about the future and sometimes establishes social and intellectual bonds between the past and the future, questions the world we live in on the other hand due to its nature. Minority Report (Steven Spielberg, 2022), which was released in 2002 and is one of the most watched science-fiction films since its release, also questions the world that is lived or will be lived and brings the determinism-free will paradox, which has always been discussed from ancient times to the present, on the agenda in the fictional universe it has created. The movie, which was released after the attacks of September 11, 2001, deals with this paradox, while also bringing up the phenomena of the surveillance and control on the axis of determinism-free will. In this study, which aims to reveal the reflections of the concepts of determinism-free will in the movie, which are discussed in the context of basic physics laws and philosophical discussions, both the place of the dilemma in human life and its relationship with scientific discoveries are discussed. In the analysis of the film, a philosophical approach is used in order to reveal the connection of the meanings of the films with philosophical concepts, and the ideological analysis method is used to make the hidden visible. At the end of the film, which begins with an unconditional belief in a strict deterministic system perspective, it is observed that the idea of belief in free will is accepted.
