Abstract :Justice is the concept that ensures the existing order and aims to maintain it. Conscience and compassion are the sense of distinguishing right from wrong within oneself. In this study, the concepts of justice, conscience and compassion are analyzed through the life of Reis Bey, the main character of the radio play. While analyzing the radio play Reis Bey, critical discourse analysis method was preferred. Discourse involves uncovering the true meaning of any group of words, finding the impact of words on the individual or society, understanding the real conversations in relationships between people, explaining the political system, what its ideology is and how it is. Critical discourse analysis, on the other hand, systematically analyzes a dialogue or a single spoken word by turning it into a text. Critical discourse analysis does not have a sharp line as it enables the emergence of abstract concepts underlying the dialogues. In this context, the aim of the study is as follows. While analyzing the radio play Reis Bey, it is to reveal the meanings underlying the dialogues within the framework of meaning, context, interpretation and periodic social structure. The importance of the study is to examine the relationship between the concepts of justice, conscience and compassion in the radio play Reis Bey through the individual and to interpret the evaluations between conscience and justice in the decision-making process of justice providers. The character of Reis Bey in the radio theater play has changed his thoughts towards the concepts of justice, conscience and compassion throughout the narrative. As a result, it was concluded that the main character of the radio play, Mr. Reis Bey, completely changed his attitude towards the events in his life.
