The banks have always been a focus of interest regarding the misuse of their sources for the sake of personal benefits. The main actors of the said misuse, however, are the auditors, who do not fulfil the auditing activity or duty as it should be and as a consequence, impair the affectivity of the audit, and the managers, who try to satisfy their personal benefits and ambitions by way of the use of the sources of the banks via intentional or careless behaviours through the acts and procedures contrary to the applicable laws. Thus, when the mismanagement and lack of audit come together, it will then be inevitable for the banks pertaining thereto to incur substantial scales of losses.On the other hand, the financial markets have been globalised due to the developments in the communication technology our era. In this case, the scope of the losses of banks arisingfrom the activities being designed for the satisfaction of the personal benefits or interests of the bank managers and audits is extended. According to this, a crisis commencing with a bank may spread over other banks in a country through a triggering effect of the social panic environment and throw them into a crisis and through a kind of domino effect and cause the said banks to collapse. Thus, a crisis commenced with a bank can cause a systemic banking crisis nationwide (Article 72 of the Banking Law). Consequently, it becomes possible for crisis of this kind to put the country into a general economic crisis. Even further, a crisis of this kind commencing with a bank is able to create a regional crisis exceeding the boundaries of countries geographically by affecting the countries, taken place within the close proximity of it, having experienced similar economic problems in the world. The concrete examples of this circumstance have been experienced in the banking crises, commenced in Mexico in the year of 1994 and spread over Argentina and Brazil consequently and then, turned into a Latin America financial crisis and subsequently, commenced in Thailand in 1997 and spread over Indonesia, Malaysia and South Korea and finally, turned into the financial crisis of the South-Eastern Asia. This circumstance, explained with ‘’the theory of the contagion effect of the banking crises’’ put forth the dimension and importance of the bank’s loss.&nbsp;In the face of this circumstance, the Governments have been required to necessary measures for preventing banks’ losses or crises. There have been various legal&nbsp;arrangements, expected heavy responsibility in deterrent nature bearing the objective of preventing the activities making the bank incur loss.&nbsp;It was adjudged by the lawmaker at the Turkish law having referred to Article 100 of the Banking Law that it might be possible to remove or invalidate the operating permit of a bank as a result of the decisions and procedures of the managers and auditors of a bank contrary to the applicable law or in case of the determination of the fact that they caused the related bank to be transferred into the Fund, then, it would be possible for the competent court to decide upon their personal bankruptcy directly upon decision of the board of the Fund and following the request of the same.&nbsp;It is necessary to determine on a clear and net basis the scope of this arrangement that adjudges upon a substantially serious responsibility such as personal bankruptcy with relation to the responsibilities of the managers and auditors of a bank as a result of their act(s) having caused their bank to incur loss at a degree that may bring the bank into crisis. This determination appears to be important for the stability of the application.However, the arrangement of Article 110 contains an important gap that makes this determination difficult. Namely:&nbsp;There is not any direct or indirect explanation at all, taken place in the expression and reasoning of the arrangement of the Banking Law, with relation to the nature of the responsibility in the event that the bank’s loss is jointly caused by more than one person. This uncertainty renders the determination of the scope of this arrangement difficult bearing the topic of ‘’Personal Responsibility’’. For this, it is necessary to make a comment, based on the realities of banking and sound legal bases, and present a solution proposal.&nbsp;In the face of this necessity, various evaluations have been made at the doctrine and Turkish Banking Law and different solution proposals have come forth.Within the scope of these evaluations, in case the creation of the bank’s loss by more than one person on a joint basis within the framework of the arrangement of Article 110, of the principle of the differentiated responsibility, accepted in the arrangement of Article 759 of the Swiss Law of Obligations through the reform in the Swiss Law on the Joint Stock Companies in 1991 and transmitted from this arrangement into the arrangement of Article 557 pertaining to the responsibilities of the members of the board of directors of the Joint Stock Companies of the Turkish Commercial Law no. 6102, the question of applicability of the said principle as a general provision through the instrumentality of Article 2/3 of the Banking Law. According to this, in comparison of the principle of the full succession responsibility with its results contrary to the equity that rules out opportunity for the debtors to&nbsp;put forth the causes of personal reduction such as degree of negligence and so on, in an external relationship, is the principle of the differentiated full succession that allows to bring forth the aforementioned causes of personal reductions and therefore, thought to be in conformity with the equity in general, in conformance to the objective for the arrangement of Article 110 and also the willpower of the lawmaker? Even further, in the face of the conviction, indicated by us; and when the principle of the differentiated full succession responsibility is applied within the framework of the arrangement of Article 110 in case the bank’s lost in question is caused by more than one person, will the results in conformance to the equity come forth from the point of view of the responsibilities of the managers and/or auditors and of also the provision of the balance of benefits or interests?The subject of this article is related to the willpower of the lawmaker of the applicability of the principle of the differentiated succession responsibility, and objective of the arrangement in the event that the bank’s loss within the framework of Article 110 and even beyond all these, the evaluation of whether it is in conformance to the establishment of a balance of benefits, required by the equity within the framework of the arrangement of Article 110.&nbsp;In order to make this evaluation, the mentioned legal problem or question will be determined within the content of the article before all else, and the evaluations for the solution of this question at the doctrine of the Turkish banking law and different proposals for solutions thereunder. Subsequently,In this context, our own evaluation and the proposal for solution that we have concluded as necessary to be available hereunder within this direction will be explained within the light of all these evaluations and proposals for solutions.

The Problem of the Applicability of the Principle of the Differentiated Succession Responsibility Within the Framework of The Personal Bankruptcy Responsibility of Managers and Audits at the Turkish Law

After the economic crisis that accelerated in our country following 2018, due to rising inflation and exchange rate shocks, Article 344 of the Turkish Code of Obligations (TCO) regarding the determination of rent for residential and roofed workplaces underwent changes aimed at protecting tenants. Following these changes, starting rental prices have reached exorbitant amounts, comprehensive guarantees have started to be demanded from tenants and renting residential properties without an eviction commitment letter has become nearly impossible. Multiple limitations on the maximum rent increase rate for renewed rental periods has led to excessive differences between the residental rents renewed after the change took effect on June 11, 2022, and rental agreements renewed or established before that date. While the parties determined the starting rental prices and the increase rates for renewed periods based on the ongoing economic data, the rental prices for renewed periods affected by the legal changes, which entered into force due to the economic crisis, have remained below inflation. Due to the strict termination regime for residential rents, lessors unable to terminate the contracts have started filing lawsuits for the determination of rental prices for rents longer than five years that have significantly decreased in real value against inflation, based on Article 344/III of the TCO. In cases where the conditions for these lawsuits are not met, they have begun to file rent adjustment lawsuits based on Article 138 of the same code. It is a well-known fact that this situation reflects a heavy workload on the judiciary and disputes regarding the rental prices increase day by day.The core of our study is the lawsuits filed by lessors regarding adaptation of rental prices. Since adaptation, has the nature of intervention in the contract, is considered as a last resort (ultima ratio) and closely related to the rent amount; it has been preferred to examine the provisions related to the determination of the rental price. During the period governed by the Turkish Code of Obligations No. 6098, the enactment of Article 344, which has special provisions for determining renewed rental amounts in roofed workplaces rents, diminished the significance of lawsuits regarding the adaptation of rental prices in such leases. However, changes made to this provision later have made adaptation of rental prices as a necessary institution again.&nbsp;&nbsp;It is considered that the German law, which is dominated by the theory of the transaction basis, has been used as a reference in the structuring of Article 138 of the TCO regarding adaptation. It is also accepted that when examining the conditions for adaptation under Turkish law, interpretation should be based on this theory. Therefore, in our study, while the conditions for the lessor’s request for adaptation of the rental price under Article 138 of the TCO have been examined, article § 313 of the German Civil Code (GCC) is taken into consideration. Unlike § 313/I of the GCC, the adaptation of contracts to changing circumstances under Article 138 of the TCO is specifically limited to hardship among the groups of events related to the collapse of the basis of the transaction. This distinction is particularly significant regarding the lessor’s claim for adaptation of the rental price. The fact that rental price remains too low in the face of inflation does not indicate hardship for the lessor; rather, it creates an imbalance between the parties’ obligations. The fact that Article 138 of the TCO regulates only hardship has been rightly criticized and caused dissidence regarding its field of application. According to another view that we support, considering that the legal basis for hardship is the theory of the collapse of the transaction basis, the scope of Article 138 of the TCO should be interpreted broadly to include the disruption of the balance between obligations.The purpose of this study is to establish the conditions under which a lessor can request an adaptation of the rental price, using § 313 of the GCC as a reference. The first condition for adaptation is that an unforeseen and unforeseeable event at the time of the conclusion of the contract, must cause a fundamental change in the objective conditions of the transaction. The event that causes the change in circumstances must be objective in nature and capable of leading to the collapse of the transaction basis concerning the contract in question. In this context, the fundamental change refers to the imbalance between the parties’ obligations. Finally, the lessor must not have fulfilled their continuing primary obligation; in other words, the contract must not have ended.

In trademark law, the average consumer&nbsp;is a measure that represents the target audience of a product or service and is used as a reference in cases of trademark registration or trademark infringement, and has a decisive role in evaluating consumer behaviour and perceptions and deciding on the registrability or infringement of a particular trademark or product. Indeed, one of the most important tools in the registration of a trademark and determination of the scope of protection is the likelihood of confusion between signs, and the registration request of a sign that is likely to be confused, including the likelihood of&nbsp;being associated by the publicise to its sameness or similarity with a registered or previously applied trademark and the sameness or similarity of the goods or services covered by it, is rejected upon objection [Industrial Property Law No 6769 (IPL) Art 6/1]. Again, the registration or unregistered use of such a sign constitutes an infringement of the trademark right with the previous registration date and may be prevented by the trademark right holder [Art 7/2(b) of the IPL, Art 29/1 of the IPL].The IPL has preferred to use the term “by the public” in relation to the similarity assessment of trademarks within the scope of the likelihood of confusion. However, it is accepted in both doctrine and judicial decisions that the expression “likelihood of confusion, including the likelihood of association by the public” used by the legislator does not mean all segments of the society, but the specific environment that faces the danger of association or confusion. In other words, in all these cases, the person whose perception is taken as the basis in determining the likelihood of confusion is the “average consumer”.Although most of the disputes regarding trademark law arise on the axis of likelihood of confusion, the “average consumer”, which is taken as a criterion in the evaluation, is not defined in the IPL or the Regulation on the Implementation of the Industrial Property Law, nor is there any regulation on its scope and limits in the trademark legislation. On the other hand, it is determined that the average consumer is defined in secondary regulations in two different areas. These are the Regulation on Commercial Advertising and Unfair Commercial Practises (Art 4/1-j) and the Turkish Food Codex Regulation on Nutrition Declarations (Art 4/1-f).In the judicial decisions on the subject, the average consumer is formulated as reasonably well-informed and reasonably observant and circumspect, but the level of information, attention and caution required may be evaluated differently within the framework of various criteria such as the nature of the goods/services or the nature of the buyer group[1].Indeed, while the presumptive level is higher in certain groups of goods/services, it may be at an average level in others. As a matter of fact, it is&nbsp;accepted that consumers will generally not act carefully in terms of products that are used by all segments of society in daily life.The average consumer group criterion used in trademark registration and infringement proceedings is the product of a norm-based practise that follows the legal or policy objectives underlying trademark law. Although the average consumer criterion as “a reasonably informed and reasonably cautious and prudent person” provides convenience to the decision-makers, it is insufficient because it does not take into account the scientific data on how consumer perceptions are actually directed. The replacement of traditional commerce by electronic commerce affects the purchasing behaviour of consumers and shapes consumer perception. The criteria determined within this framework make it impossible to make decisions on the subject on an objective and equitable basis.This&nbsp;paper&nbsp;does&nbsp;not&nbsp;aim&nbsp;to&nbsp;eliminate&nbsp;the&nbsp;criterion&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;average&nbsp;consumer,&nbsp;but&nbsp;it&nbsp;may&nbsp;be&nbsp;time&nbsp;to&nbsp;adopt&nbsp;a&nbsp;more&nbsp;empirically&nbsp;grounded&nbsp;approach&nbsp;to&nbsp;the&nbsp;average&nbsp;consumer.&nbsp;First&nbsp;of&nbsp;all,&nbsp;the&nbsp;norm-infused&nbsp;structure&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;average&nbsp;consumer&nbsp;is&nbsp;fictional&nbsp;in&nbsp;three&nbsp;senses:&nbsp;attention,&nbsp;knowledge&nbsp;and&nbsp;vigilance.&nbsp;This&nbsp;triple&nbsp;artificiality&nbsp;leads&nbsp;to&nbsp;a&nbsp;non negligible&nbsp;disconnect&nbsp;between&nbsp;what&nbsp;trademark&nbsp;law&nbsp;recognises&nbsp;and&nbsp;what&nbsp;reality&nbsp;is.&nbsp;Adding&nbsp;more&nbsp;reality&nbsp;to&nbsp;this&nbsp;remodelling&nbsp;process&nbsp;and&nbsp;interpreting&nbsp;the&nbsp;average&nbsp;consumer&nbsp;as&nbsp;objectively&nbsp;as&nbsp;possible&nbsp;requires&nbsp;an&nbsp;interdisciplinary&nbsp;work&nbsp;between&nbsp;behavioural&nbsp;sciences&nbsp;and&nbsp;legal&nbsp;science.&nbsp;On&nbsp;the&nbsp;other&nbsp;hand,&nbsp;it&nbsp;is&nbsp;considered&nbsp;that&nbsp;the&nbsp;actual&nbsp;use&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;trademark&nbsp;should&nbsp;also&nbsp;be&nbsp;taken&nbsp;into&nbsp;account&nbsp;as&nbsp;part&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;global&nbsp;assessment&nbsp;in&nbsp;the&nbsp;likelihood&nbsp;of&nbsp;confusion&nbsp;assessment,&nbsp;and&nbsp;a&nbsp;more&nbsp;empirically&nbsp;based&nbsp;structure&nbsp;should&nbsp;be&nbsp;established&nbsp;by&nbsp;applying&nbsp;survey&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;in&nbsp;proving&nbsp;the&nbsp;likelihood&nbsp;of&nbsp;confusion.

The past decade has witnessed a marked proliferation of autonomous vessels in the commercial context. At the moment, there are at least ten different projects under which autonomous vessels of varying types and sizes are currently in the testing phase and undertaking routine cargo operations. Owing to the obvious differences between these new and conventional vessels, it makes good sense to adopt the novel regulations specifically designed for autonomous vessels. Whilst there is ongoing work on drafting rules applicable to these new types of vessels at both national and supranational levels, slow progress indicates that these vessels will probably be subject to existing regulations for quite some time. Consequently, studies evaluating the applicability of the existing legal rules to autonomous vessels have been on the rise for the past decade. Arguably, the most noteworthy of such large-scale studies is the IMO’s scoping exercise, which was concluded in 2021. The IMO’s work has been rather influential in subsequent studies on the subject. However, perhaps, the most pronounced impact of the IMO’s scoping exercise can be seen in the four degrees of autonomy, devised specifically for the IMO’s inquiry, as virtually all studies conducted on the subject refer to these categories with many adopting them as the yardstick for analysing various rules in the context of autonomous vessels. However, the degrees of autonomy devised by the IMO have not been immune to criticism. Indeed, many commentators have, rightly, pointed out the ambiguity of these categories and their inconsistency with the widely used technical concepts encompassing autonomous vessel designs. The latter is especially problematic in view of the fact that the prevailing technical designs for realising autonomous vessels expect the ship rotating freely between different degrees of autonomy during the same voyage. Accordingly, a vessel, despite not being fully autonomous, might operate at times without any human intervention in higher degrees of autonomy. Equally, the same vessel can also be operated manually by the crew or the remote control centre personnel when the need arises. However, the IMO’s degrees of autonomy are unable to reflect the dynamic autonomy levels crucial to the operation of autonomous vessels. In fact, it is submitted that no static category is without problems as any kind of categorisation&nbsp;involves selecting static combinations between autonomy level, manning and technical capabilities. Since pragmatism dictates including a number of categories and eliminating others, some combinations end up being superfluous because they are not different from conventional vessels and others might prove unrealistic. Moreover, the flexible nature of prospective vessel designs, which may freely mix onboard manning and remote control capability as well as dynamic autonomy levels, means that static categories are generally a poor fit for evaluating the applicability of existing regulations to autonomous vessels and lead to misleading outcomes. Accordingly, focusing on the key differences between conventional vessels and autonomous vessel prototypes that are currently being tested for operation, three questions stand out in evaluating whether an existing rule could also apply to an autonomous vessel: The first is whether the vessel is, ultimately, controlled by a human or a machine. This is significant, as the existing rules are drafted with humans in mind, who are solely making decisions related to navigation and actively participating in or supervising the control of the vessel. However, in higher degrees of autonomy, the decisionmaking and controlling processes are essentially done by the machine and humans are not involved in the process. This vital difference poses certain difficulties, especially with rules relating to fault or other legal concepts based on humans. The second question is whether the vessel has a crew on board, as traditionally the vessel is manned by the crew onboard and this is evident in certain basic rules such as requirements for seaworthiness. Finally, the third question is whether the vessel is controlled onboard the ship or somewhere else. This is also partly connected to the second question because certain rules require the physical presence of humans on board. Therefore, even if it is conceded that the crew could be transferred to land and control the vessel from the remote control centre to ensure functional equivalency, certain rules still remain incompatible with autonomous vessels. In conclusion, it is argued in this article that, instead of centring the analysis on prescribed categories, regard must be had for these three parameters in analysing the applicability of the existing regulations, which ultimately supports more reliable results.&nbsp;

Climate refugees can be defined as people who are compelled to leave their homes due to climate change-related reasons. As can be understood from the description, the problems that climate refugees (would) face stem from two different but intermingled crises. Namely, the climate crisis and the refugee crisis. Although these two crises have set different obstacles for climate refugees, they are nevertheless related; since the climate crisis constitutes the substructure for the climate refugees. Thus, taking climate action is crucial for reducing the number of possible climate refugees. This structural approach to addressing climate refugees would protect them, even before they become climate refugees, by eliminating the substructure, which would give rise to the superstructure of climate refugees.Nevertheless, an increase in average global temperatures is foreseen even in the most optimistic scientific scenarios that assume the possibility of a relatively successful fight against climate change. Therefore, it is only reasonable to assume that climate refugees will become a part of the future. As a result, these people would need protection in the context of refugee rights. Thus, it is necessary to focus on both the climate crisis and refugee rights to offer a comprehensive solution.&nbsp;In order to deal with the substructure of the climate refugee issue, namely, the climate crisis, two main sets of solutions are suggested in this paper. The first set consists of international agreements aimed at combating the climate crisis. The Paris Agreement (2015) and the Kyoto Protocol (1997) are the two most prominent of those agreements. Although the agreements have been accepted quite widely; they both suffer from issues such as lack of an effective enforcement mechanism, lack of a supranational authority that would monitor the parties and implement the agreement directly, the principle of voluntariness in becoming a party to the agreements, freedom to withdraw from the agreements without any sanctions, and, finally, lack of&nbsp;any real sanction regarding failure to comply with the agreements. The flaws in both agreements stem from the paradigm of national sovereignty that enshrines states’ will and consent. Since it is quite unlikely that 193 member states of the United Nations will agree to take the same climate action, humanity’s fight against climate change is in constant jeopardy. Although public opinion favours climate action, people’s opinions do not seem to affect state policies either. The second set of solutions can be described as the “technological solutions” which refers to technologies, such as carbon capture technology, that are aimed at combating climate change. Unfortunately, these technologies are incapable of replacing the legal and political set of solutions before reaching a tipping point, resulting in an irreversible climate catastrophe.To deal with the superstructure of climate refugees, international refugee law must be examined, despite the fact that there is no legal definition of climate refugees in international law. The Refugee Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees (hereinafter, Refugee Convention), the most prominent document on the subject, not only lacks a definition for climate refugees but also does not provide climate refugees with the status of refugee; since the term “refugee” in the agreement can only be applied to those who are persecuted on a political basis. Nevertheless, climate refugees tend to suffer from natural causes rather than political causes. Therefore, it is necessary to draft a new refugee convention or an annexe to the Refugee Convention to transcend the convention’s narrow scope and protect climate refugees. Unfortunately, even if there were more comprehensive legal terms for climate refugees; considering the lack of enforcement in international law, they could not provide real protection. Thus, issues surrounding climate refugees, both in the context of refugee rights and the climate crisis, constitute a conundrum because of the current international legal and political status quo.

An Inquiry on the Legal Status and Protection of Climate Refugees from an International Law Perspective

As is known, the securitisation of the law came to the fore after 9/11. In this article, the balance and the subsequent dilemma of security and freedom were examined on the basis of a verdict of the German Federal Constitutional Court, which was dated in 2006. In the decision of the Court, from time to time, the possibilities of the weighing lives one another were dwelled on by examining “Aerial Security Law” which at one point permitted a hijacked plane to be shot down, in order to save more lives. The court, however, did not open the door of weighing life by invoking the core element of the Bundesgesetz, the German Constitution, namely the human dignity. The verdict, which was translated into Turkish from German, did not solely touch upon the substantive part of the law. In other words, the German Federal Constitution Court has also delved into the procedural part of the law. As is known, in Germany, landers, the States, have a lot saying during the procedure of enacting a law. Therefore, the States have also argued against the Law before the Court not only on the grounds of the substantive part but also on the grounds of the procedural part. It was contested that the Federal government did have the consent of the other part of the legislature.&nbsp;Regarding the substantial part, the issue that the German Federal Constitutional Court focuses on in its decision is the incomparability of human lives. If there is even a 1% chance, human life cannot be put at risk and cannot be compared quantitatively. Similar discussions have arisen in the railway switchman dilemma for years. Accordingly, when a waggon with no brakes is coming quickly and five railway workers are working on the road where the waggon in question travels, they do not have time to escape. However, if the railway switchman notices the situation and turns the switch, he turns it to the side where only one worker is working. With very simple mathematics, the railway switchman would prefer that one person die rather than five. When the criminal liability of the railway switchman is left aside, the issue to be discussed is “ethics”. Because are the lives of five people greater than the life of one? The answer to this question is generally “yes”. The question then asked will be; What if that person is a Nobel Prise-winning doctor who will find the cancer vaccine? Then the answer changes and the scientist’s life becomes more important than the other five people and the railway switchman does not turn the switch. The dilemma begins exactly here. When answering the first question, the background, education, and role of these people on the world stage were not taken into consideration. Directly, these people were reduced to the status of objects, they were forgotten that they were humans, and they turned into “numbers”. An attempt has been made to explain this situation around the concepts of human rights and the fight against terrorism. It was emphasised that the concepts in question are not alternatives to each other and that the fight against terrorism will be carried out more accurately by respecting human rights. This is the issue emphasised in the Court decision in this study. The issues that states should take into consideration when legitimately fighting terrorism within the boundaries of law were also evaluated within the framework of “ethical” principles, both in the decision of the German Federal Court and in the subsequent analysis.Furthermore, while the Court examined the case, many aspects were considered and many actors were given the right to defend their arguments before the Court. In the process, professionals in the topic such as the Association of German Federal Defence, the Association of Pilots and the Independent Flight Attendant Organisation had right to put forward their ideas and arguments. Not only were the non-governmental bodies able to present their arguments, but also the groups at the parliaments could argue the case. In this process, one of the interesting things to observe was the delving into the arguments of the parliament groups/alliances who backed the law during the voting procedure of the law, but argued against it before the Court. Also, the possibilities of these “amicus curiae”, the friends of the court, term in Turkish aspect was dwelled on. In this regard, as it is seen that the working rules of the Turkish Constitutional Court and the German Constitutional Court are different from one another, many aspects of them were discussed. Most importantly, the term “amicus curiae” was used when the first of its kind was made possible by the Turkish Constitutional Court, as the Court accepted the amicus curiae report, which was prepared by the Constitutional Law Research Association (Anayasa-Der) and the Turkish Criminal Law Association (TCHD) and submitted together to the Court.&nbsp;

The existence of the principle of irrevocability of phases is almost uniformly accepted by the doctrine and the law practise, but it is not directly mentioned in the Turkish Criminal Procedure Code or in other relevant laws. Although the principle is not directly included in the legislation, there are various regulations that indirectly indicate its existence. At the beginning of these regulations, comes Article 174 of TCPC. According to this article, an indictment that has not been returned within 15 days of its delivery will be considered accepted. According to Article 175 of TCPC, as soon as the indictment has been accepted, the investigation phase ends and the main trial phase (phase of prosecution) starts. Once the main trial phase starts, there is no return to the phase of investigation. The doctrine and practise generally accept that after passing of these 15 days, the return of the indictment is no longer allowed. Because the passing of these 15 days removes the authority, which has been given to the court, to return the indictment. The same conclusion can be reached from article 267 and following articles of TCPC. Because these articles give the opportunity to reconsider the decision which has been made by the court. But even in those cases, there is no return to the investigation phase. This means indirectly that there is no response from the main trial phase to the investigation phase. Generally accepted, there are two phases in criminal procedure; namely, phase of investigation and the phase of the main trial. Although it is not directly mentioned in the current Turkish Criminal Procedure Code, there is an intermediate trial phase. This phase, which allows the return of the indictment with a limited period of time, is not important for our study because it is still considered as the investigation phase in terms of our current law. Because when the irrevocability of the phases is mentioned, what is meant exclusively is the irreversibility from the main trial phase to the investigation phase. Since the intermediate trial phase is also counted as a part of the investigation phase, we can indirectly say that it is not possible to return from the main trial phase&nbsp;to the intermediate trial phase. Since the legislator does not qualify a separate phase, although there is no obstacle in terms of the principle of irrevocability from phases, it is not clear whether the prosecutor can withdraw the indictment independently of the court during the intermediate trial phase; to put it more accurately, it does not seem possible since it is not foreseen in the legislation. For this reason, although it has no place in the legislation, it is rightly defended in our doctrine that the prosecutor’s office should be given such a withdrawal authority. Indeed, with the start of the main trial phase, the phase in which the prosecutor is the emperor comes to an end, and the task of executing and managing the process passes to the court. Thus, when the main trial phase is initiated, the obligation of the court to perform and terminate the process starts. However, in some cases, the lack of prosecution conditions or the emergence of obstacles to judgement may require returning to the investigation phase or making a decision to stop and correcting the relevant deficiencies by out-of-court authorities. For this reason, in some country practises, it is possible to return to the investigation phase during and/or after the main hearing period. The recent annulment decision of the Constitutional Court regarding the accelerated proceeding also necessitates a return to the investigation phase. This study aims to explain within the framework of comparative law that it should be possible to return to the investigation phase in order to eliminate the injustices (problems in the context of a fair trial) that may arise in these and similar cases.

The Principle of the Irrevocability of Phases

The justiciability of international organizations has been a topic of debate, particularly regarding the United Nations’ role in the cholera outbreak in Haiti. The UN’s role is often compared to that of a god who bears no responsibility for actions beyond being above the law. This article discusses the concepts of immunity, autonomy, and responsibility of international organizations, including the effective use of alternative systems to repair the damage caused. The role of personnel working for the UN is compared to that of angels, who are expected to work for the good of humanity. The Haiti Cholera Outbreak serves as a contemporary example through which to understand the UN’s stance towards immunity, responsibility, and justiciability in similar situations or cases. This article analyzes the immunity of the UN and compares it with other international organizations to demonstrate the special position of the UN. Waiver of immunity is tested with extreme examples in which human rights were involved.When the UN was created, there was no legal framework to hold international organizations responsible for damage they could cause. The law developed later through several court decisions and other legal instruments when the personality of international organizations became clear. The law of international responsibility was shaped to hold states to account as the primary actors of international relations. However, this led to some discrepancies in the responsibility of international organizations. To be more specific, jurisdiction of international courts was already developed to hear the cases between states, not covering international organizations.According to section 29 of the Convention on the Privileges and Immunities of the United Nations, immunity is waivable (by the UN Secretary General). However, waiver of immunity by the UN is uncommon. What would really happen if the UN did not hide behind its veil of immunity and face liability? Would this lead to more actions against the UN all over the world and render the UN’s functions disrupted?&nbsp;Considering the fact that UN peacekeepers have been involved in sexual abuse of local people in many host states, including Haiti, one can conclude that the UN might have ended up in great trouble if it had no immunity at all.It can be argued that the UN is a vulnerable organization as evidenced by Congo peacekeeping operations. Therefore, the UN needs a shield of immunity to operate properly. In a similar vein, immunity is necessary to ensure that the troop-contributing nations send their contingents more willingly; otherwise, the UN mission might dysfunction and even end up failure. Yet, the UN has expressed its “deep regret” and “moral responsibility” over the cholera outbreak and the subsequent human loss on a number of occasions and finally recognized moral obligation in a Security Council resolution in 2016. However, this has not reached the level of waiver of immunity, acceptance of legal responsibility, and compensation of any damages caused by the UN angels. By failing to undertake legal responsibility as such, the UN will undermine its own legality and sustainabilityIt was also argued that even in extreme circumstances, the UN should preserve its immunity for the sake of ensuring the UN’s independence from the member states. This argument provokes the question of to what extent the UN is independent of the member states? Independence, or, in other words, autonomy is a natural consequence of international personality. Today, it is undisputedly agreed that the UN has international legal personality, as first evidenced by Reparation for Injuries Advisory Opinion of the International Court of Justice. As such, the UN has the right to operate at the same level as states at the international forum, with similar but not identical rights with those of the states. Thus, the UN is able to enjoy rights and bear responsibilities as a result of its personality. These rights and obligations include the capacity to bring claims before international tribunals, immunity from national jurisdictions as well as the burden to face responsibility for the wrongful acts of its agents.One can argue for the limits of immunity that the UN should have. It follows that should the UN have immunity even when its agents have violated a norm of jus cogens character? Is it necessary for the UN to stick to its immunity even in such extreme circumstances? The question seems to have been answered positively by the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) in Stichting Mothers, where the UN has been found to have the shield of immunity even in the face of a breach of a norm of jus cogens character. The ECtHR relied on the argument that since the UN was acting under chapter VII, it would be an interference to deny its immunity. Since its establishment the UN as an international organization, in shaping the world order, was trying to reach the goal of peace and security. However, it was hard for the UN to create a balance between peace and justice, which remained an unsolved dilemma. This decision of the ECtHR reaffirms the dichotomy between peace and justice.In conclusion, not waiving its immunity and sticking to its God role the UN, might be said to have staged a non-existent God role by not making any visible alterations to the world to hold those who might be responsible to account. To avoid this image of a non-existent God, the UN should recalculate well when and where to resort to a waiver of immunity, considering its moral obligations and values that it was established to protect.

In this study, court decisions are classified in terms of procedural law and examined in the context of the effect of a court decision on other court decisions. The court decision, as a textual product given by the judge according to law, equity and conscientious conviction, is analysed in terms of containing principles. In a court decision, if the abstract norm is clear and the judge applied it to the concrete case by the deductive method, he/she did not engage in a unique mental action. Such decisions are case decisions or application decisions. In this respect, after it has been demonstrated that not all court decisions have the characteristics of jurisprudence, the court decisions that are taken into consideration in order to ensure similar decisions in precedent cases and therefore are not binding have been evaluated. In this respect, the persuasive power of precedent case law as a requirement of legal stability has been revealed. The value of precedent as a source of law, i.e., the value of a jurisprudence as a source of law, is explained by pointing out the differences between Continental European Law and Common Law. At this point, it has been determined that whether a court decision is bound by other court decisions or not stems from the relationship between the legislature and the judiciary, in other words, from the view of the law and the judge. On the other hand, in addition to the fact that a court decision contains a principle, the notion of a jurisprudence, i.e., the concept of constant jurisprudence, is discussed within the framework of jurisprudence constant (constant jurisprudence), which is a Continental European jurisdictional law theory. While the concept of constant jurisprudence is seen in the decisions of the Council of State as the precedent that courts and even administrations take care to comply with, it has been revealed that this may actually correspond to an institution from French law. In this respect, the doctrine of jurisprudence constant, which is accepted as the Continental European equivalent of the doctrine of stare decisis (precedent decision) in common law, has been analysed within the framework of both an institution and the concept of the case law seen in the decisions of the Council of State. It is analysed how a constant jurisprudence is formed and how this jurisprudence may impact the judge’s decision. There is a need for a certain time for the formation of a constant jurisprudence. Case law applied for a certain time will also prove its durability.&nbsp; The fact that the court-issuing the decision is a higher-ranking court and that the decision is unanimous is important for it to be rendered unanimous. In the decisions of the Council of State, the broad interpretation of the interest of the inhabitants of the town in filing a lawsuit regarding zoning applications, environment, historical and cultural assets, the liability of the administration for acts of terrorism should first be based on fault liability and then, if there are conditions, on strict liability, and in the absence of these cases of liability, an investigation should be conducted according to Law No. 5233. It is argued that the criticism and contributions to be made by the doctrine in the decision review journals will be useful for the follow-up of the constant jurisprudence and criticism of the jurisprudence before it becomes constant. Within the scope of the study, the deviation of the court from the constant jurisprudence in administrative jurisdiction is also discussed in the context of the prohibition of surprise decisions. In one of the decisions of the Council of State, the prohibition of a surprise decision is addressed in the context of the right to be heard, but a surprise decision is a concept that can have a broader meaning. In this respect, making a decision different from the case law without a justifiable reason may violate the prohibition of a surprise decision. The compatibility of the principle of ex officio investigation and the prohibition of surprise decisions has been discussed within the framework of administrative jurisdiction law as a branch of procedural law. It is expected that the judge, who will decide differently from the established jurisprudence, will give the parties the opportunity to present their final statements before rendering his/her decision. The study also evaluates the connection of the unification of case law, which is an institution specific to Turkish procedural law, with the case law considering judicial decisions. As seen in the decisions of the Council of State, if a case law has become a case law, it should not be subject to a unification of the case law decision. In essence, the Council of State wants to prevent the case law from being frozen. This approach of the Council of State also reveals that although the case law is not as binding as the case-law consolidation decisions, it is a case law that is taken care to be followed and has a strong power to convince other courts/judges. Consant jurisprudence is thus explained as a product of the effort to ensure the integrity of case law rather than unifying it.&nbsp;

Some Consideratıons on The Concepts of Precedent, Constant Jurisprudence and Jurisprudence in Administrative Jurisdiction

In criminal proceedings, the law enforcement officers may conduct an investigation to obtain information about the crime. The statement, taken by asking questions to the person who is not the suspect to determine and clarify the crime, may be expressed as information retrieval. Investigation and research activities under the name of information gathering are conducted to find evidence of crime in cases where the suspect is not known. This is lawful because of the investigation stage and the effectiveness of the law enforcement in criminal procedure law. After the suspect is identified, his official statement is taken in accordance with legal requirements. The suspect is the person who is suspected of committing a crime and against whom an investigation has been opened by the investigative bodies. According to the general opinion accepted in doctrine and judicial decisions, a person has the capacity of the suspect when investigative bodies take action to clarify the crime and take measures. In practise, it has been seen that information is obtained from the suspect without recording although the crime has been revealed and the suspect has been identified. The informal information gathering in question is called a preliminary interview because the requirements for statement taking stipulated in the legislation are not complied with. Although the suspect is identified, the law enforcement officer conducts an informal interview with him instead of taking the statement officially. This communication method becomes a rule in practise. The interview with him without complying with the requirements for statement taking can be exemplified as the significant problems seen in law practise in the investigation stage. The aim of this study is to identify the legal nature of the preliminary interview by a law enforcement officer with the suspect after a crime has been committed and to determine whether the information obtained is within the scope of forbidden evidence. In criminal procedure law, an investigation is opened when the suspicion of a crime emerges. A face to face interview with the suspect could be beneficial to&nbsp;obtain criminal evidence during the investigation. In this regard, taking the statement of the suspect is a significant investigation procedure to obtain criminal evidence and to determine the course of the investigation. Also, it is the reasoning process in which the suspect can use his right of defence for the first time. Therefore, he should be reminded of his rights before taking the statement, and the law enforcement should prevent his will from becoming defective during statement taking. In this regard, the preliminary interview by the law enforcement officer with him is called secret statement taking and considered as unlawful because it does not constitute an assurance in favour of the suspect. The statement taking, a technical and legal procedure, is conducted in the law enforcement unit by being recorded. Preliminary interviews, on the other hand, are made at the crime scene or while being taken to the law enforcement units or hospital, and the statement of the suspect is not recorded. The suspect’s will become defective can be shown as reason for the preliminary interview is forbidden evidence. The psychological or actual pressure caused by the unrecorded and informal interrogation prevents the suspect’s free will. This violates the fair trial principle. The principle prohibits investigative bodies from using any means to reach the truth and also prevents the suspect’s being suppressed and compelled to testify against himself and used as a means to obtain evidence. In a lawful statementtaking procedure, it should be stated to the suspect that he is free to make a statement about the accusations against him and that this right is protected by law before being interrogated. It is emphasised with freedom of giving a statement that the personal rights of the suspect are more important than the purpose pursued by the criminal investigation. However, the legal rights of the suspect were not reminded during the preliminary interview. Therefore, the suspect, whose free will is made defective, is compelled to accept the accusations against himself. A preliminary interview may also be made with a third party due to the fear that he will not tell the truth before the law enforcement. The third party’s being present during the preliminary interview does not prevent the suspect’s will from becoming defective. Therefore, it is unlawful to obtain some statements from him with the help of a reliable third party. This preliminary interview by the law enforcement officer with the suspect is an unlawful procedure, and a conviction cannot be obtained based on the statement. The statement taken during the preliminary interview should be considered forbidden evidence even if later confirmed in court by the accused. However, the statement taken after the preliminary interview can be considered a lawful evidence. If the suspect is explained that the statement in the preliminary interview is forbidden evidence and his rights are reminded before his statement is taken officially, the subsequent statement can be considered legitimate.

A Procedural Oddity in the Investigation Stage in Turkish and German Practise: Preliminary Interview with the Suspect

Legal security requires that the rules of law are certain, that the legal order continues in stability and that individuals can foresee the consequences of the rules to be applied to them. There is no doubt that this predictability must be ensured by the courts. It is clear that it is a requirement of a fair trial that similar decisions are rendered in similar disputes, that the parties can foresee the decision to be rendered in a case, and that certainty is ensured in the application of the rules of law. The European Court of Human Rights, which interprets the principle of the rule of law together with the fundamental rights and freedoms protected by the European Convention on Human Rights, has evaluated the different decisions of the courts on similar issues within the scope of the right to a fair trial and has developed two criteria. The first criterion is the deep and continuing nature of the contradiction, and the second is the existence of a mechanism in national law to resolve this contradiction, whether this mechanism was used in the applicant’s case, and if so, what result was obtained. The Court states that the States Parties are obliged to harmonise their jurisprudence and that the supreme courts in particular are the most important mechanism for resolving conflicts. The Court, which also imposes a responsibility on the high courts in this sense, characterises the issuance of deep and persistent contradictory decisions by the high courts as a practise that undermines the principle of legal security and violates the right to a fair trial. The Court, which evaluates whether a deep and persistent contradiction has occurred in each concrete case, does not consider it a violation if the issue that constitutes a contradiction of jurisprudence is resolved in one and a half years and decisions are rendered in accordance with this resolution in subsequent cases, while it considers the continuation of the contradiction for up to three or four years as a violation of the right to a fair trial. The Turkish Constitutional Court also adopted the criteria and assessments of the European Court of Human Rights regarding the impact of jurisprudential differences in the right to a fair trial. In particular, with regard to the differences of jurisprudence before the higher courts, the Court considers the possibility that a decision will be upheld if it falls within a certain&nbsp;chamber and will be overturned if it is dealt with by another chamber, resulting in conflicting and contradictory outcomes, contrary to the principles of legal certainty and predictability.&nbsp;One of the issues that constitutes a conflict of jurisprudence in Turkish law is the issue of whether the methods of protection of public receivables will be applied to the legal representatives and shareholders of limited liability companies due to the public debt of the company. Although the Council of State Unification of Jurisprudence Board has determined that there are more than one contradictory decisions by the Council of State departments, it has decided that there is no need to unify the jurisprudence by stating that the contradiction in the decisions has not reached a level that would disrupt the legal stability. This decision is open to criticism in many ways. First, the inconsistency in the judgments dates back much further than the judgments cited in the application. When these old decisions are taken into consideration, it is understood that the criterion of deep and persistent contradiction sought in the decisions of the European Court of Human Rights is met. Since Article 3 of Law No. 6183, which creates an interpretation problem between the chambers of the Council of State, has been in force for many years, it is unacceptable that the Council of State cannot develop a uniform interpretation in terms of the application of the norm. Moreover, it is observed that the relevant case chambers have reversed their own decisions on the same issue many times and changed their case law. As such, these decisions create an unpredictable legal order for the legal representatives and shareholders of limited liability companies. In the light of all these explanations, despite the existence of a deep and ongoing contradiction, the failure to eliminate the contradiction by unifying the case law leads to a violation of the right to a fair trial.

The article has two main purposes. First, it sheds light on a few crucial details about the normative hierarchy that are sometimes overlooked by scholars or students. This revisit of the issue also provides me with an opportunity to take a second look at issues associated with the normative hierarchy. The issues clarified in the first part will also help in answering the questions asked in the second part. The second purpose of the article is to raise what seems to be an interesting question only to reject it. The question is whether the normative superiority of morality over law could be claimed based on the explanations made in the first part and whether this could affect the truth of legal positivism. The second part of the article is dedicated to answering these two problems.&nbsp;The first section of the first part reiterates that whether a hierarchy exists between two norms or not should be determined based on the potential normative power of the norms. Therefore, for instance, the fact that at a certain point in time, a norm does not regulate the procedure of creation for another norm does not signify the absence of hierarchy as long as the first norm possesses the power to regulate it at another time.&nbsp;The next section is an answer to a possible critique of normative hierarchy that draws on H.L.A. Hart’s criticism of “validity purport”. Hart thought that the relationship of validity in Kelsen’s theory is reduced to a relationship between the contents of the norms and that this leads to problems for Kelsen’s understanding of the unity of the legal system. The reply stresses that Kelsen’s theory of validity does not merely take into account the contents of the norms but also pays attention to their normative power, i.e., what they can or cannot successfully regulate with their content.&nbsp;&nbsp;The third section reiterates that for the existence of hierarchy, it is not required that a norm need to be invalidated in case of contrariness to another. This is simply irrelevant. The crucial element is the requirement that a legal norm should be in conformity with the other. This is often established by a norm superior to both norms.&nbsp;The last section touches upon the interesting distinction between a source of law and a legal norm to indicate that the hierarchy is between the norms and not the sources. Combined with the fact that a single norm can be constituted by several&nbsp;sources of law, this section offers a way to determine the hierarchy between “multi-sourced” legal norms.&nbsp;The second part of the article opens with an inquiry into the minimum condition of legal positivism. There are differences in opinion among the legal positivists, but what makes them all legal positivists? The first section suggests that a form of the separability thesis is taken to constitute the common ground.&nbsp;The second section asks the following question: Since, as expressed in the first part, the existence of a hierarchical relationship between the norms does not require the invalidity of the inferior norm’s contrariness and finds the existence of a requirement of conformance, could it be claimed that ideal morality is superior to law? The article answers the question in the negative. The first section argues that the existence of a requirement to conform is sufficient for the existence of hierarchy in case a norm superior to both norms in question provides for the requirement of conformance. In the case of morality and law, there is no such common denominator. Just as morality claims to be superior to law, law may claim to be superior to morality. Moreover, it is argued that the legal positivism formulated around the separability thesis manages to survive even when it is granted that it is necessary for the addressees to have moral or prudential reasons to conform to legal norms.&nbsp;&nbsp;

One of the principles that Civil Procedure Law based on is the “dispositional control of the parties principle”. Under this principle, parties’ have the right solve private law disputes according to their dispositions. Under the principle, dispute parties are free to decide choose or not to choose litigation as way of resolution. Principle also covers to end the dispute by an settlement (in principle). One of the dispute ending options under the principle is the parties settlement agreement. Settlement agreement, generally, is an agreement in which parties agree to ending the dispute with mutual compromise. In other words, it can be also defined as an agreement in which parties completely or partially ending the dispute mutually. Settlement agreement, regulated as an stand alone regulation for the first time in the Article 313/1 of the Code of Civil Procedure (CCP) numbered 6100. Under the Article, settlement agreement means that the parties agreement on to ending the dispute completely or partially in an outstanding case. This definition only covers the in-judicial settlement. Because the definition requires a settlement in front of the court. Out of judicial/court settlement is not regulated under the CCP. Because, this kind of settlement fall in the area of the Turkish Code of Obligations. Out of judicial settlement is an agreement out of the court in which the parties agreed to end the dispute completely or partially at mutual interest point they considered. There is no necessity of an outstanding ongoing case process at this point. Additionally, an ongoing trial process would not affect the out of judicial settlement. It is needed a transformation of the out of judicial settlement to an in-judicial settlement to affect an ongoing trial at the same dispute. Out of judicial settlement is an substantive law agreement. This agreement is fall in the provisions (General Provisions) of the Turkish Code of Obligations. Out of judicial settlement agreement is not be need to be made in written because of the “freedom as to form” principle of the Turkish Code of Obligations. If the out of judicial settlement transformed to an in-judicial settlement it could affect an ongoing trial at the same dispute. Parties convey the out of judicial settlement to the court and then court get in record the agreement. After that moment, out of judicial settlement is evaluated as an in-judicial settlement. It is not needed that the whole provisions of the out of judicial settlement to get in recorded in the trial documents. Article 315/1 of the CCP regulates the provisions on effects and solutions of settlement agreements. Under this provisions when the out of judicial settlement transformed to an in-judicial settlement it would has the same legal power and&nbsp;solutions of it. The first solution of this transformation is the ending of existing dispute, in other words ending of the existing court trial. The second important outcome of the in-judicial settlement agreement is that it would have the same legal effect of final court decision. In-judicial settlement has an important another legal effect that it would has the power of the final court decisions under the Enforcement and Bankruptcy Code Article 38. If the out of judicial settlement transformed to an in-judicial settlement it would has the same affect as well.

Involvement of persons with disabilities in business life is extremely important – just as much as in their access to education and health services - and in their enjoyment of social protection because unemployment makes individuals becoming unemployed feel like they are useless. Involvement of persons with disabilities in business life, and pursuing the same eliminates the social effects caused by the risk of unemployment. In addition, working persons with disabilities benefit from social insurance protection based on their work, and thus a decrease occurs in the expenses made for persons with disabilities from the social security budget. While the policies relevant to persons with disabilities started with passive policies such as protecting persons with disabilities, today they have transformed into active policies such as ensuring the complete participation of persons with disabilities in employment. In Turkey, the number of persons with disabilities recorded on the National Database on Persons with Disabilities is 2.461.828 for the first half of the year 2019. And the rate of participation of persons with disabilities in employment is 22.1 percent. When compared with the data for the EU and OECD, this number is very low. Thus, increasing the participation in employment of persons with disabilities is also among the objectives relevant to business life. When the legal regulations in Turkey are examined, it can be observed that rules relevant to the protection of persons with disabilities have taken place in Constitutional Law for the first time. According to Article 17 of Constitutional Law, everyone has the right to live, and to preserve and improve their material and moral presence. And, according to Article 49 of Constitutional Law, working is everyone’s right and obligation. The government takes the required measures to increase the standard of living of employees, protect the unemployed, and support working. The government’s actualization of this obligation is especially important in terms of persons with disabilities who are experiencing many difficulties in involvement in business life. For this reason, it is required that the government should take special measures for persons with disabilities, and to provide the work environment for them. Hence, in Article 50 of Constitutional Law, it has been emphasized that no one could be employed in works not conforming to their strength, and the rule of “the ones having physical and psychological insufficiency are distinctively protected in terms of working conditions” has been established. And the most basic law regarding persons with disabilities is the Law on Persons with Disabilities no 5378. This law intends that persons with disabilities should benefit from fundamental rights and freedoms, and to ensure their participation in social life under equal conditions with other individuals. Article 30 of Labour Law no 4857 regulates the details relevant to the liability of employers to employ persons&nbsp;with disabilities. Article 30 was regulated again in 2008, and new principles were established regarding the employment of persons with disabilities. In accordance with this, employers employing fifty or more employees in the workplace have to employ a specific number of persons with disabilities. When Article 30 of Labour Law is examined, it is observed that the straightforward quota method has been adopted regarding the employment of persons with disabilities. The quota determined within this scope is three percent for workplaces in the private sector, and four percent for workplaces in the public sector. It is required that the following conditions are present for liability of the employer to employ persons with disabilities to arise : i) The workplace’s inclusion in the scope of Labour Law, or Maritime Labour Law, ii) Employment of fifty or more employees in the workplace. In case of the presence of these conditions, the employers are required to employ persons with disabilities whose rate of disability is at least 40 percent. Persons with disabilities should be employed through the Turkish Employment Agency. But the employer may also employ a person with disabilities through his own means. In this case, it is required to inform the Turkish Employment Agency, and to have the person with disabilities recorded at the Agency. An administrative fine is imposed on the employer acting against the liability of employing persons with disabilities. Another method regarding the employment of persons with disabilities is the concept of sheltered employment. Briefly, this method is ensuring the employment of persons with disabilities – for whom it is difficult to bring them in business life - within the frame of special conditions. In this system, there are sheltered workplaces where the working environment is specifically arranged in order to ensure the employment of persons with disabilities. In Turkish Law, the principles of this subject have been regulated in the Law on Persons with Disabilities, and in a certain regulation issued on this subject. That Regulation first came into force in 2006, and it was renewed in 2013. Persons with disabilities who will be employed at sheltered workplaces, are not only persons with physical disabilities but persons with mental and psychological disabilities. In terms of acquiring the status of a sheltered workplace, some conditions have been sought by the Regulation. Above all, it is required that the workplace is one which holds the qualifications determined by the Regulation, and where at least eight persons with disabilities are employed. In addition, the ratio of the number of persons with disabilities who will be employed at a sheltered workplace to the number of total employees shouldn’t be less than seventy five percent. In the Regulation, the physical conditions and equipment that the sheltered workplace has to have (safety, traffic safety, fire protection etc.) were also specified. A specific part of the remunerations&nbsp;of the persons with disabilities being employed at sheltered workplaces is paid by the government. In Turkish law, amendments made in time in Article 30 of Labour Law being the basis of the liability of employing persons with disabilities, and especially the increase in incentives for the employers in private sector are deemed as proper regulations. Again, allowing the employers to find workers who will be employed by their own means is also among those steps which would facilitate employment. Certainly, considering the measures ensuring employment as incentives rather than a quota and fine method would be a more constructive approach.

Night work has been the subject of many discussions due to its contradictory nature to the biological structure of the human body. This attribute of night work requires that night work and day work should not be handled in the same way in the legal order. The developments in the field of Occupational Health and Safety Law, and the researches regarding the effects of night work on the human health, constantly demand the review and improvement of the regulations regarding night work. In this regard, the most important protective provision regarding the workers working at night could be the limit on the night working time. In accordance with the Article 69 (I) of the Labour Law No. 4857, “night” is defined as the period starting at the latest at 20.00 in the evening, and lasting at the earliest until 06.00 in the morning, which in any case lasts maximum eleven hours. Furthermore, in accordance with Article 69 (III), night work shall not exceed seven and a half hours. However, significant exceptions have been recently adopted to this rule. The amendment, enacted in 2015, allows employers in some sectors (private security, tourism and jobs related to healthcare) to demand night work in excess of seven and a half hours by obtaining written approval from the worker. It should be noted that the regulations concerning night work are particularly important regarding the work carried out by shift work. Taking into consideration the need for governing special procedures and principles on this subject, a regulation specifically on shift work has been issued, and exceptions to the rule on the limit of the night working time are also included in this regulation. In my opinion, the propriety of this change amendment is highly debatable. It can be argued that the service should continue uninterruptedly in the sectors mentioned in the Article (private security, tourism and jobs related to healthcare). However, the employment of the workers for longer periods is not the only way to ensure the continuity of the service. Although written approval of the worker enabling the night work in excess of seven and a half hours is stipulated, the worker-protective approach of the Labour Law which protects the workers even from themselves, especially on the issues regarding occupational health and safety should not be disregarded. It should also be noted that the Regulation on shift work also includes a statement which is not included in the text of the Labour Law. In the Regulation; it is prescribed that the workers employed by the subcontractor in the workplaces, where private security, tourism and health services are carried out, also fall under this scope. If the letter of the statement is followed; it could be concluded that all workers employed by the subcontractor in the health, tourism and private security sectors may be employed at night for more than seven and a half hours. However, it is clear that such an interpretation would be incompatible with the exception regulated in the Labour&nbsp;Law. The provision of the regulation should be interpreted in a manner to cover subcontractor workers who are employed in the sectors referred to in the Labour Law, specifically in cases where subcontracted work is carried out with respect to these sectors. It has been concluded that the recent changes in the field of night work constitute a reversal in terms of workers’ rights. It is clear that the continuity of the services without disruption can be also maintained by increasing the number of shifts. Furthermore, I would like to draw attention to the fact that the regulations regarding night work are quite disorganized. In this regard, it may be suggested that all the rules regarding night work should fall into a single regulation. As a result, it may be stated that there is a need for the review of the regulations on night work in our legislation.

This article deals with multi-tier dispute resolution clauses incorporating both mediation and arbitration together under Turkish Law. I use the terminology of “med-arb” not only for the situation where the mediator acts as an arbitrator, but rather in a general meaning covering all instances where the arbitration is commenced following an unsuccessful mediation. The purpose of this article is to discuss the validity of the med-arb agreements, the consequences of starting arbitration before the mediation fails, the effects of the mediation proceedings and of the mediator acting as an arbitrator on the arbitration that follows the mediation as well as the admissibility of the documents and factual evidence exchanged at the mediation. For the purpose of this article, the comparative laws, international ethics rules, international guidelines on the conflict of interest and admissibility of evidence are reviewed along with Turkish law. Turkish Code on Mediation in Civil Law Disputes stipulates some provisions related to the med-arb. These provisions shall apply equally to both domestic and international arbitrations where the place of arbitration is Turkey. Following the jurisprudence of the Turkish Supreme Court, a med-arb agreement is valid only if it reflects, without doubt, both parties’ consents to the arbitration following the failure of the mediation proceedings. Therefore, a multi-tier dispute resolution clause subject to Turkish law needs to be drawn carefully. In this respect IBA Guidelines for Drafting International Arbitration Clauses are of assistance. In cases where one of the parties commences arbitration without a recourse to mediation first, the arbitral tribunal should make a decision on the admissibility of the claim. There is no direct provision related to the question of admissibility under Turkish law. Under Turkish law, in parallel with the practice of international arbitration, the tribunal has to interpret the med-arb agreement to make a decision on the question of whether the recourse to mediation is a pre-condition of the arbitration. If the mediation is a pre-condition, then the tribunal should suspend the arbitral&nbsp;proceedings and direct the parties to the mediation. However, in the case that the mediation fails, the tribunal may resume the arbitral proceedings. There is nothing under Turkish law suggesting that a precondition of arbitration is a jurisdictional issue rather than an admissibility issue. The advantages of the med-arb are subject to heated debates among people holding different perspectives. Such advantages are controversial since when a dispute arises and the arbitration starts without a recourse to mediation, the respondent may object to the jurisdiction of the tribunal or to the admissibility of the claim relying on the fact that the pre-condition to try mediation first is not met. Such an objection may cause arbitration to be delayed and/or the costs of arbitration to increase. Therefore, before opting for a med-arb agreement the parties should evaluate the possibility of settling their dispute at the Med-arb. The parties who are able to consider their commercial interests do not need a med-arb agreement as they are able to settle the disputes without the assistance of a mediator. They first try to settle the dispute, in some cases for years, and to avoid adjudication by an arbitral tribunal. They only start arbitration when there is no possibility of settlement of their dispute and of saving their commercial alliance. In such cases, med-arb agreements become a tool to delay the proceedings and increase the costs for the claimant to force him or her to give up his or her claim. Having said that, for the parties who are unable to consider their commercial interest and unable to avoid adjudication, med-arb agreement may be the right dispute resolution clause. In a med-arb agreement, the parties may wish the mediator to act as their arbitrator if the mediation fails. Neither the Turkish Code of Mediation in Civil Disputes nor the Turkish International Arbitration Code prevents a mediator to act as an arbitrator. Turkish Ethics Rules for Mediators stipulate that a mediator may act as an arbitrator only if the parties have agreement in writing. Therefore, any mediator to act as arbitrator needs to have the parties’ written consent. In international mediation and arbitration practices, the scholars and practitioners widely accept that having an arbitrator who previously acted as a mediator generates a number of serious risks and concerns. First of all, the mediator-arbitrator may not protect his or her impartiality in the arbitration because of the facts that she or he became aware of during the mediation. Secondly, the mediator-arbitrator may rely on the confidential information exchanged in caucus while making the award. Thirdly, the mediator may be too willing to act as an arbitrator and as a result the mediation may prematurely fail. Finally, the mediator may abuse his or her powers and force the parties to settle their disputes as the mediator suggests. The parties may feel that if they are not able to settle their dispute and proceed to the arbitration, the mediator-arbitrator would make an arbitral award in parallel of the recommendations at the mediation phase. Considering the severity of the consequences, if the parties agree to have an arbitrator&nbsp;who previously acted as their mediator, they need to be aware of such consequences and they need to make an informed decision accordingly . The Turkish Code of Mediation in Civil Law Disputes restrains the ability of the mediator-arbitrator to rely on the documents produced during the mediation for the purpose of settlement and defines which documents are in this category. In the case where the mediator-arbitrator relies on these documents while making the award, depending on the extent the document or information has a bearing on the award, the arbitral award may be cancelled, or its enforcement may be refused. In November 2019, Istanbul Arbitration Center (ISTAC) introduced its Medarb Rules. ISTAC Med-arb Rules are the first published institutional Med-arb rules. ISTAC Med-arb Rules reflect the best practices in international mediation – arbitration. I believe that ISTAC Med-arb Rules will be welcomed in the field of international dispute resolution.

Her bir makale editörlerden biri ve en az iki hakem tarafından çift kör değerlendirmeden geçirilir. İntihal, duplikasyon, sahte yazarlık/inkar edilen yazarlık, araştrma/veri fabrikasyonu, makale dilimleme, dilimleyerek yayın, telif hakları ihlali ve çıkar çatışmasının gizlenmesi, etik dışı davranışlar olarak kabul edilir.Kabul edilen etik standartlara uygun olmayan tüm makaleler yayından çıkarılır. Buna yayından sonra tespit edilen olası kuraldışı, uygunsuzluklar içeren makaleler de dahildir.

Etik

Dergi araştırma etiğinde en yüksek standartları gözetir ve aşağıda tanımlanan uluslararası araştırma etiği ilkelerini benimser. Makalelerin etik kurallara uygunluğu yazarların sorumluluğundadır.-    Araştırmanın tasarlanması, tasarımın gözden geçirilmesi ve araştırmanın yürütülmesinde, bütünlük, kalite ve şeffaflık ilkeleri sağlanmalıdır.-    Araştırma ekibi ve katılımcılar, araştırmanın amacı, yöntemleri ve öngörülen olası kullanımları; araştırmaya katılımın gerektirdikleri ve varsa riskleri hakkında tam olarak bilgilendirilmelidir.-    Araştırma katılımcılarının sağladığı bilgilerin gizliliği ve yanıt verenlerin gizliliği sağlanmalıdır. Araştırma katılımcıların özerkliğini ve saygınlığını koruyacak şekilde tasarlanmalıdır.-    Araştırma katılımcıları gönüllü olarak araştırmada yer almalı, herhangi bir zorlama altında olmamalıdırlar.-    Katılımcıların zarar görmesinden kaçınılmalıdır. Araştırma, katılımcıları riske sokmayacak şekilde planlanmalıdır.-    Araştırma bağımsızlığıyla ilgili açık ve net olunmalı; çıkar çatışması varsa belirtilmelidir.-    Deneysel çalışmalarda, araştırmaya katılmaya karar veren katılımcıların yazılı bilgilendirilmiş onayı alınmalıdır. Çocukların ve vesayet altındakilerin veya tasdiklenmiş akıl hastalığı bulunanların yasal vasisinin onayı alınmalıdır.-    Çalışma herhangi bir kurum ya da kuruluşta gerçekleştirilecekse bu kurum ya da kuruluştan çalışma yapılacağına dair onay alınmalıdır.-    İnsan öğesi bulunan çalışmalarda, “yöntem” bölümünde katılımcılardan “bilgilendirilmiş onam” alındığının ve çalışmanın yapıldığı kurumdan etik kurul onayı alındığı belirtilmesi gerekir.

Makalelerin bilimsel ve etik kurallara uygunluğu yazarların sorumluluğundadır. Yazar makalenin orijinal olduğu, daha önce başka bir yerde yayınlanmadığı ve başka bir yerde, başka bir dilde yayınlanmak üzere değerlendirmede olmadığı konusunda teminat sağlamalıdır. Uygulamadaki telif kanunları ve anlaşmaları gözetilmelidir. Telife bağlı materyaller (örneğin tablolar, şekiller veya büyük alıntılar) gerekli izin ve teşekkürle kullanılmalıdır. Başka yazarların, katkıda bulunanların çalışmaları ya da yararlanılan kaynaklar uygun biçimde kullanılmalı ve referanslarda belirtilmelidir.Gönderilen makalede tüm yazarların akademik ve bilimsel olarak doğrudan katkısı olmalıdır, bu bağlamda “yazar” yayınlanan bir araştırmanın kavramsallaştırılmasına ve dizaynına, verilerin elde edilmesine, analizine ya da yorumlanmasına belirgin katkı yapan, yazının yazılması ya da bunun içerik açısından eleştirel biçimde gözden geçirilmesinde görev yapan birisi olarak görülür. Yazar olabilmenin diğer koşulları ise, makaledeki çalışmayı planlamak veya icra etmek ve / veya revize etmektir. Fon sağlanması, veri toplanması ya da araştırma grubunun genel süpervizyonu tek başına yazarlık hakkı kazandırmaz. Yazar olarak gösterilen tüm bireyler sayılan tüm ölçütleri karşılamalıdır ve yukarıdaki ölçütleri karşılayan her birey yazar olarak gösterilebilir. Yazarların isim sıralaması ortak verilen bir karar olmalıdır. Tüm yazarlar yazar sıralamasını <a href="https://cdn.istanbul.edu.tr/file/JTA6CLJ8T5/E53FB0CE54514A729F14BBA673C58319" target="_blank">Telif Hakkı Anlaşması Formu'nda</a> imzalı olarak belirtmek zorundadırlar.Yazarlık için yeterli ölçütleri karşılamayan ancak çalışmaya katkısı olan tüm bireyler “teşekkür / bilgiler” kısmında sıralanmalıdır. Bunlara örnek olarak ise sadece teknik destek sağlayan, yazıma yardımcı olan ya da sadece genel bir destek sağlayan, finansal ve materyal desteği sunan kişiler verilebilir.Bütün yazarlar, araştırmanın sonuçlarını ya da bilimsel değerlendirmeyi etkileyebilme potansiyeli olan finansal ilişkiler, çıkar çatışması ve çıkar rekabetini beyan etmelidirler. Bir yazar kendi yayınlanmış yazısında belirgin bir hata ya da yanlışlık tespit ederse, bu yanlışlıklara ilişkin düzeltme ya da geri çekme için editör ile hemen temasa geçme ve işbirliği yapma sorumluluğunu taşır.

Baş editör, makaleleri, yazarların etnik kökeninden, cinsiyetinden, cinsel yöneliminden, uyruğundan, dini inancından ve siyasi felsefesinden bağımsız olarak değerlendirir. Yayına gönderilen makalelerin adil bir şekilde çift taraflı kör hakem değerlendirmesinden geçmelerini sağlar. Gönderilen makalelere ilişkin tüm bilginin, makale yayınlanana kadar gizli kalacağını garanti eder. Baş editör içerik ve yayının toplam kalitesinden sorumludur. Gereğinde hata sayfası yayınlamalı ya da düzeltme yapmalıdır.Baş editör; yazarlar, editörler ve hakemler arasında çıkar çatışmasına izin vermez. Hakem atama konusunda tam yetkiye sahiptir ve Dergide yayınlanacak makalelerle ilgili nihai kararı vermekle yükümlüdür.Hakemlerin araştırmayla ilgili, yazarlarla ve/veya araştırmanın finansal destekçileriyle çıkar çatışmaları olmamalıdır. Değerlendirmelerinin sonucunda tarafsız bir yargıya varmalıdırlar. Gönderilmiş yazılara ilişkin tüm bilginin gizli tutulmasını sağlamalı ve yazar tarafında herhangi bir telif hakkı ihlali ve intihal fark ederlerse editöre raporlamalıdırlar. Hakem, makale konusu hakkında kendini vasıflı hissetmiyor ya da zamanında geri dönüş sağlaması mümkün görünmüyorsa, editöre bu durumu bildirmeli ve hakem sürecine kendisini dahil etmemesini istemelidir.Değerlendirme sürecinde editör hakemlere gözden geçirme için gönderilen makalelerin, yazarların özel mülkü olduğunu ve bunun imtiyazlı bir iletişim olduğunu açıkça belirtir. Hakemler ve yayın kurulu üyeleri başka kişilerle makaleleri tartışamazlar. Hakemlerin kimliğinin gizli kalmasına özen gösterilmelidir. Bazı durumlarda editörün kararıyla, ilgili hakemlerin makaleye ait yorumları aynı makaleyi yorumlayan diğer hakemlere gönderilerek hakemlerin bu süreçte aydınlatılması sağlanabilir.

Daha önce yayınlanmamış ya da yayınlanmak üzere başka bir dergide halen değerlendirmede olmayan ve her bir yazar tarafından onaylanan makaleler değerlendirilmek üzere kabul edilir. Gönderilen ve ön kontrolü geçen makaleler iThenticate yazılımı kullanılarak intihal için taranır. İntihal kontrolünden sonra, uygun olan makaleler baş editör tarafından orijinallik, metodoloji, işlenen konunun önemi ve dergi kapsamı ile uyumluluğu açısından değerlendirilir.Seçilen makaleler en az iki ulusal/uluslararası hakeme çift taraflı kör hakemlik ile değerlendirmeye gönderilir; yayın kararı, hakemlerin talepleri doğrultusunda yazarların gerçekleştirdiği düzenlemelerin ve hakem sürecinin sonrasında baş editör tarafından verilir.

Yazım Kuralları

Makale başvuruları doğrudan <a href="mailto:iuhfdergiler@istanbul.edu.tr" target="_blank">iuhfdergiler@istanbul.edu.tr</a> adresine yapılmaktadır.

Derleme yazıları, okuyucular için bir konudaki kaynaklara ulaşmayı kolaylaştıran bir araç olsa da, her zaman orijinal çalışmayı doğru olarak yansıtmaz. Bu yüzden mümkün olduğunca yazarlar orijinal çalışmaları kaynak göstermelidir. Öte yandan, bir konuda çok fazla sayıda orijinal çalışmanın kaynak gösterilmesi yer israfına neden olabilir. Birkaç anahtar orijinal çalışmanın kaynak gösterilmesi genelde uzun listelerle aynı işi görür. Ayrıca günümüzde kaynaklar elektronik versiyonlara eklenebilmekte ve okuyucular elektronik literatür taramalarıyla yayınlara kolaylıkla ulaşabilmektedir.Kabul edilmiş ancak henüz sayıya dahil edilmemiş makaleler Early View olarak yayınlanır ve bu makalelere atıflar “forthcoming” şeklinde verilmelidir. Genel bir kaynaktan elde edilemeyecek temel bir konu olmadıkça “kişisel iletişimlere” atıfta bulunulmamalıdır. Eğer atıfta bulunulursa parantez içinde iletişim kurulan kişinin adı ve iletişimin tarihi belirtilmelidir. Bilimsel makaleler için yazarlar bu kaynaktan yazılı izin ve iletişimin doğruluğunu gösterir belge almalıdır. Kaynakların doğruluğundan yazar(lar) sorumludur. Tüm kaynaklar metinde belirtilmelidir. Kaynaklar alfabetik olarak sıralanmalıdır.Referans Stilli ve Formatıİstanbul Hukuk Mecmuası, makalelerinde referans sistemi olarak OSCOLA kullanımını benimser. OSCOLA (Oxford Standard for the Citation of Legal Authorities), Oxford Üniversitesi tarafından yayınlanmış bir sistemdir.
