Summary/Abstract: The thesis presents the ethical aspects of Camus’ philosophical essay entitled The Rebel. The ethical aspect is crucial in this work, since the author first starts pondering on the justification of murder, an issue that first became prominent in the period marked by totalitarian ideologies. From there, Camus proposes the concept of rebellion, which constitutes the foundation for developing values, and which serves as a base for the principle of border, and for the requirement for solidarity. Camus tries to bring back those values into the world, especially into the rebellion that has lost all relations with its roots, which primarily refers to the revolution. A true rebellion in a time of great ideas returns dignity to the individual and refuses to use him as a means for carrying out those ideas. Finally, this thesis examines the possibility of creating Camus’ ethics.
