The International Court of Justice (ICJ), the main judicial body of the United Nations (UN), has contributed significantly to the protection of human rights in its efforts to build up the rule of law on a global scale. Although the ICJ is founded upon a state-centric approach, it has also directly dealt with issues on the rights and interests of individuals in many cases brought before it.&nbsp;It could be claimed that in the 21st century, the ICJ has begun to endorse a more active approach in the protection of individual rights within the framework of international law. This tendency is apparent in the judgments made in a series of cases since the early 2000s on the protection of certain consular rights stipulated in Article 36 of the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations (VCCR). These rights are greatly important in the protection of the individual’s right to a fair trial within the framework of international law. These judgments are, in chronological order, LaGrand, Avena and Others, and Jadhav, the latest one of which was published in 2019 and is one of the most recent judgments of the ICJ. In these cases, the ICJ has adopted an increasingly evolving approach in the active protection of individual rights.&nbsp;The LaGrand case, published in 2001, was filed by Germany against the United States, claiming that the two German nationals involved were not allowed to avail of the rights they were entitled to under Article 36 of the VCCR. They were sentenced to death by a U.S. court in 1984 after being found guilty of participation in a robbery. The German authorities were not notified about the case until 1992; thus, could only intervene in the case eight years after the sentence had been delivered. It was also only revealed at this late stage that both German nationals were not duly notified of their rights under Article 36 of the VCCR. Nevertheless, the renewed objections raised in the U.S. courts were rejected, and the death sentences were not overturned. Thus, Germany brought the United States’ supposed violation of Article 36 of VCCR before the ICJ. The ICJ found that the United States violated Article 36 of VCCR. In fact, the United States admitted to the violation but disputed Germany’s assertions on the breadth of the scope of the relevant remedies. The ICJ decided that the United States should take all the necessary measures to ensure that the death sentence imposed would be considered and reviewed effectively. In this case, the ICJ also made a crucial interpretation by recognizing that international treaties generate exclusive individual rights distinct from those of their states of nationality, while not finding it necessary to assess Germany’s claims that the individual rights stipulated in the VCCR should also be considered as human rights.&nbsp;&nbsp;In the Avena and Others Judgment, dated 2004, the United States was again the defendant, while the plaintiff this time was Mexico. The case involved 54 Mexican nationals who were arrested, tried, and sentenced to death by U.S. courts. Mexico claimed that its nationals were deprived of their consular rights arising from Article 36 of the VCCR. Once again, the ICJ found that the United States violated the VCCR.&nbsp;The Jadhav Judgment is the third judgment regarding violations of Article 36 of the VCCR. The case concerned an Indian national who was arrested by Pakistani security officials and tried and sentenced to death by a Pakistani military court. Thereupon, India applied for institution of proceedings with the ICJ for violations by Pakistan of various international law rules, primarily Article 36 of the VCCR. In this case, the arguments submitted by the parties and the chain of events leading to the dispute differed greatly to the two previous cases. However, the judgment was similar, with the ICJ once again finding the defendant responsible for violations of the consular rights granted by the VCCR. The main innovation in the Jadhav Judgment was relative to the remedies. Going beyond the remedies provided in the previous cases, the ICJ decided that the responsible state should not only take all the necessary measures to ensure that its death penalty decision will be considered and reviewed but also make changes in its national laws, if necessary. It was also noteworthy that in the Jadhav Judgment, the ICJ made some connections between Article 14 of the UN Convention on Civil and Political Rights—stipulating the individual’s right to fair trial—and Article 36 of VCCR.

As a result of the endangerment of the environment due to accelerated technological and economic developments, the environment has come to the fore in the law system. There are many regulations on the environment and its protection both in international law and Turkish law. However, considering the protection of the environment within the scope of criminal law has been increasingly seen in the recent past.Environmental law―violations for which were previously sanctioned under administrative regulations―has expanded into criminal law over time and has taken a place in the doctrine and practice as environmental criminal law. The inadequacy of alternative solutions in the struggle against environmental law violations has resulted in most legal systems turning toward criminal law. The protection of the environment within the scope of criminal law, which started to gain more importance in the 1970s–1980s, also affects the Turkish Penal Code No. 5237.Criminal law intervention in violations against the environment is the subject of different discussions. One of these is the function of administrative regulations in the punishment of violations of environmental protection. Environmental values are not directly protected through criminal law, as not all acts of violating environmental values result in criminal responsibility. The subject matter makes sense within the scope of the administrative dependence of environmental criminal law. This duality, the administrative and criminal aspects of environmental law, constitutes the main framework of this paper.In the field of environmental protection, where administrative law and criminal law are closely related, the effectiveness of both branches of law should be taken into account. Particularly considering the claims that the function of criminal law in environmental protection should be reduced or even abolished, environmental offenses should be examined within the scope of the protected legal value, the relationship of environmental violations with human life and health, and the ultima ratio (last resort) principle of criminal law. Criminal law mostly functions in support of the administrative management of the environment. Administrative law specifies the obligations that individuals and companies must comply with in the context of environmental law, and criminal law accepts that violators of the provisions of administrative law on environmental protection will be punished with certain sanctions. Although the legal protection of the environment has been largely-and for a long time-shaped by administrative regulations, the importance of criminal law should not be ignored.&nbsp;Moreover, the structural feature of environmental offenses that distinguishes them from traditional offenses is that they are mainly considered within the scope of endangerment offenses. In endangerment offenses, it is not necessary that harm is caused as a result of the act. Committing the typical act in abstract endangerment offenses is sufficient to constitute the offense. In concrete endangerment offenses, it is necessary to have a dangerousness that is suitable for causing harm. The difficulty of proving environmental offenses has become one of the major factors in the increase in the number of endangerment offenses committed.The degree of administrative dependence also varies by the way environmental offenses are regulated. The distinction of environmental offenses into abstract–concrete endangerment offenses is decisive in terms of the scope of administrative dependence. The fact that environmental offenses are subject to the rules of administrative law is important both qualitatively and functionally. The qualitative meaning is based on the degree of administrative dependence in environmental offenses. Functionally, the judge has to take into account the administrative law requirements during the trial phase. Thus, this paper will deal with not only the theoretical dimension but also the practical dimension, provided that it is limited. The forms in which administrative dependence appears are also important in environmental offenses. The administrative dependence of environmental laws appears in different forms. In this context, conceptual dependence, dependence on administrative law, and dependence on administrative action come to the fore. Particularly, dependence on administrative action is important because it is related to issues that cause problems in environmental criminal law. This subject is examined together with the principle of certainty.&nbsp;&nbsp;

As an aggravating factor arising from the instrument used in the crime, the commission of the offense of intentional injury with a weapon is regulated in subparagraph (e) of the 3rd paragraph of Article 86 of the Turkish Penal Code numbered 5237 (TCK). It is undisputed that the offense of intentional injury with a weapon should be punished effectively. However, in this case, the trial of the crime is carried out ex officio. In this context, what should legally be understood as the weapon is essential.It can be seen that the concept of weapon is defined in paragraph (f) of Article 6 of the TCK, which is titled “Definitions..” According to this paragraph, “[i]n the implementation of the criminal law the term of a weapon shall have the following meaning”: “a firearm”; “an explosive”; “all instruments produced for the purpose of [defense] or attack [that] are capable of cutting, piercing[,] or injuring”; “any instrument, not having been specifically manufactured for the purpose of attack or [defense], which may be used for such purpose”; and “a nuclear, radioactive, chemical[,] or biological substance [that] has burning, corrosive, harmful, suffocating[,] or toxic properties or is capable of causing permanent illness..” Although it is stated in the preamble of this study that the concept of “weapon” is defined such that it need not be explained separately, it should be noted that the aforementioned determination is not valid, particularly in terms of subparagraph 4 of paragraph (f) of Article 6. This is because, even if the offense of intentional injury is committed with instruments that are considered weapons within the scope of subparagraph 4, there is no uniform understanding regarding these instruments in the punishment phase. This situation can lead to unjust results, such as different punishments for different perpetrators who commit the offense of intentional injury using the same means.In this study, the concept of “weapon,” which includes the reference in the 4th subparagraph, will be examined first. While making this examination, article 189 of the Turkish Penal Code numbered 765 (ETCK), which constitutes the basis of the complex expression in the 4th subparagraph of (f) subparagraph of the 6th article of the TCK, will also be emphasized. Subsequently, an evaluation will be performed on the cases in which the instrument used in the crime of intentional injury should be included in the scope of “any instrument, not having been specifically manufactured for attack or [defense], which may be used for such purpose.”&nbsp;Furthermore, the present study will explore whether animals, parts of the human body, or immovable objects are included in this context as well as the particular issues that can arise if the instrument used in the crime of intentional injury during the trial cannot be seized. Moreover, the relationship of the 4th subparagraph with the 3rd subparagraph will be highlighted due to the problems that it causes in practice regarding the crime of willful injury. In addition, what should be understood from the 4th subparagraph will be considered. Thus, the issue of whether the offense of intentional injury is committed with “all instruments produced for defense or attack [that] are capable of cutting, piercing[,] or injuring” or “any instrument, not having been specifically manufactured for attack or defense, which may be used for such purpose” will be addressed. All the aforementioned issues will be examined with a careful consideration of the approach of doctrine and practice. As a result, the necessity of abolishing the 4th subparagraph and using another expression with the amendment to be made in article 6 or the subparagraph (e) of the 3rd paragraph of article 86 of the TCK will be emphasized.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The decision on obviating investigations (CPC Art. 158/6) was first added to Turkish law through Article 145 of Decree Law No. 694 dated August 15, 2017 and enacted through Article 140 of Law No. 7078 dated February 1, 2018. In fact, even if this regulation had not been enacted, prosecutors would be required to consider any denunciation or complaint insufficient for launching an investigation in the absence of a situation providing the impression of a crime having been committed within the framework of the right to a good reputation, the principle of a fair trial, and the provision of individuals’ legal security in accordance with Article 160/1 of the CPC. However, the high number of decisions on obviating investigations in practice showed that this procedure was not always followed. Naming a person as a suspect and taking protective measures against them have been prevented due to DOOI accepting that investigations cannot be launched regarding abstract, general, or non-criminal denunciations and complaints. Initiating an investigation, naming a person as a suspect, and taking certain actions against said person in the absence of simple suspicion or the fact that an act does not constitute a crime violates the right to a good reputation and the person’s presumption of innocence. The legislator enacted the said regulation in order to eliminate these drawbacks.As per the regulation in Article 158/6 of the CPC, a preliminary evaluation phase is brought to the investigation phase. At this stage, the public prosecutor must evaluate whether the denunciation or complaint constitutes a crime and whether it has a general and abstract nature and then decide whether to launch an investigation as a result of the evaluation.As per Article 158/6 of the CPC, the regulation has been made that the decision not to carry out an investigation shall be notified to the denouncer or the complainant, if any, who may then appeal to the Criminal Court of Peace in the jurisdiction where the High Criminal Court is located and where public prosecutor who made the decision in accordance with the procedure in Article 173 holds office. In order to prevent the arbitrary behavior of public prosecutors, the denouncer or the complainant has been given the right to object to the DOOI. After the decision is made in favor of obviating an investigation and whether the decision is objected to (Article 173/4, 6) or not (Article 158/6), no statement is found in Article 158/6 of the CPC to clarify the conditions under which an investigation may be relaunched in relation to an act that has been the subject of a denunciation and/or complaint. Article 158/6 of the CPC also contains no&nbsp;regulation regarding notification of the person about whom a denunciation or complaint has been made or regarding the authority to access the records kept, to request their deletion and correction, or to be informed of this judicial process in case the decision is appealed.Article 158/6 of the CPC also regulates that the actions taken and decisions made are to be recorded in a system specifically for this, with the stipulation that these records may only be viewed by the public prosecutor, judge, or court. The registration system as regulated by Article 158/6 of the CPC will play an important role in preventing different prosecutors from making the same or different decisions in cases where the same denunciation or complaint is made repeatedly to the system.Article 158/6 of the CPC is a regulation that has been introduced to prevent investigations regarding each denunciation and complaint and to protect individuals’ right to a good reputation; however, this provision also has problems because the regulation allows records to be kept of each crime with no distinction being made regarding the nature of the crimes. In addition, registrations can be made in this system specific to the regulation for general and abstract denunciations, as well as for denunciations and complaints made due to acts that do not clearly constitute a crime or an act that has not occurred. Such an arrangement contradicts the protection of personal data and the right to a good reputation. The regulation also does not specify how long these records will be kept. Keeping records in the system indefinitely, even when only a limited number of people can view them, is contrary to the rights to a good reputation and protection of personal data. A time limit should be introduced, and at the very least a determination should be made in this regard based on the statute of limitations.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Online Solicitation of Children for Sexual  Purposes (Cyber Grooming) From the Turkish  Legal Perspective

Article 419 of TCPC No. 765 defines the punishment for those guilty of the crime of indecent acts as follows: “The punishment for those who act indecently in public shall be imprisonment from fifteen days to two months and for those who have sexual intercourse in this way shall be imprisonment from six months to one year.” With the regulation in Article 225 of TCPC No. 5237, the type of crime and punishment was changed as follows: “A person who engages in sexual intercourse in public or who exposes themself in public shall be sentenced to a penalty of imprisonment for a term of six months to one year.” With this amendment, the crime was limited to acts of publicly engaging in sexual intercourse and public exhibitionism, and the difference between these said acts regarding punishment was abolished.Although the crime of indecent acts does not constitute a physical attack against its victims, their moral values are damaged, and such acts cause psychological shocks that under certain conditions will put people at a disadvantage, even physically. For this reason, in my opinion, the legal value protected by this crime is believed to be the rights to develop one’s spiritual existence and to live in a healthy environment.Although the crime of indecent acts does not constitute a physical attack against its victims, their moral values are damaged, and such acts cause psychological shocks that under certain conditions will put people at a disadvantage, even physically. For this reason, in my opinion, the legal value protected by this crime is believed to be the rights to develop one’s spiritual existence and to live in a healthy environment.Regarding legal types, the elective acts of this crime are sexual intercourse and exhibitionism. In my opinion, sexual intercourse may be defined as any kind of sexual act that results in ejaculation and involves interpersonal contact, regardless of the genders of the parties. Within the framework of this definition of sexual intercourse, a reciprocity is sought with both parties having to consent in order to talk about a sexual relationship. The acts constituting exhibitionism are also not listed per item in the law, and the acts that violate the legal value protected by crime should be evaluated and determined for each concrete case. For the crime to occur, the acts must be done publicly, with publicly being understood to mean that the act can be visible to one or more persons who are not involved at the time the act is performed.The subjective element of crime is intent. Committing this crime is possible with probable intent. In terms of the crime of indecent acts, a separate purpose or motive is not foreseen in the legal definition of the crime. Although the doctrine states that the crime of indecent acts does not occur when a person performs the acts with no sexual motive, making such an assessment is impossible due to the perpetrator’s motivation being a separate subjective element; in other words, their purpose apart from intent is not included in the crime type. Performing the act deliberately is sufficient to show the perpetrator’s guilt, while performing this act for a purpose is not necessary to show guilt.The use of freedom of expression and dissemination of thought or the execution of these types of acts that constitute the crime of indecent acts within the limits of the use of the right in the context of the freedom of science and art do not constitute a violation of the law.Exhibitionism is defined in the science of psychiatry as a state of sexual disorder that should be considered within the scope of mental illnesses, and a conclusion should be reached according to its effect on the ability to be at fault by evaluating it within the scope of Article 32 of the TCPC.In terms of the act of having legal public sexual intercourse, the crime of indecent acts is a crime with multiple perpetrators. The act of exhibitionism, which is legally envisaged as another optional act of this crime, should be noted as only being able to be committed through the perpetrator’s own bodily behavior, and so the crime is one that can be committed in person.In terms of the aggregation of crimes, although the doctrine should be noted to state that the crime of indecent acts also occurs when the act of sexual abuse or sexual assault is committed publicly, it also states that information gathering should be applied. In this case, only that which qualifies as sexual abuse or as sexual assault will be mentioned.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Article 4 of Protocol No. 7 (P7-4) of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), to which Turkey became a party in 2016, is interpreted by the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) within the framework of the ne bis in idem rule. In this context, jurisprudence dictates that tax and criminal court proceedings dealing with the same issue should be “sufficiently close in substance and in time.” This approach, which emerged with the Glantz and Nykänen judgments in 2014, was applied by expanding its scope in the Kristjansson judgment in 2021. Even though the jurisprudence of the ECtHR does not proceed in a straight line, according to the established part, there is a requirement of the connection in terms of substance. As explained in the Nykänen and Glantz rulings with regard to both proceedings, the State Parties should avoid repetition in evaluating the facts of the case. This approach became more concrete in the A and B ruling, the Court concluded that in order to establish a connection in substance, evidence collected in one of the tax or penalty sets must also be taken into account in the other set. As can be seen from other rulings since the Johanesson ruling, the duplication of collection and evaluation of evidence leads to a breach of the P7-4. Moreover, the prolonged trial period due to this disconnection also leads to the problem of connection in terms of “time” because recollecting the same evidence in the second trial involves a duplication of work in terms of the trial as well as unnecessarily prolonging the process for the prosecuted. Therefore, in order to pass the connection test in terms of “substance” and “time,” eliminating the practices that lead to duplication is important, and the intertrial interaction method should be used for this.Apart from this procedure, no other legal regulation exists in Turkish law on ensuring the interactions between tax and criminal courts. Moreover, both courts collect evidence separately and conduct a deliberate examination of the same act. Clearly this situation is incompatible with the case-law of the ECtHR. In this respect, the study offers a possible solution to the problem with no need for a new regulation. In this context, acts subject to tax crimes in Turkish Law should be classified under two types, and the roles of the tax and criminal courts should be determined according to the nature of the act.Due to the crimes regulated in Article 359 of Turkish Tax Proceedings Law (VUK) being far removed from forming a systematic whole, acting in accordance with the characteristics of these crimes would be more appropriate than following a single&nbsp;procedure for all the crimes in the article. Therefore, such crimes can be divided into two types with regard to the intent to be investigated: Those that do and those that do not require knowledge of tax techniques. With its knowledge of tax techniques, the tax court is more competent regarding proceedings of the first type, such as forgery and accounting fraud, whether committed intentionally or not. The criminal court, on the other hand, has competences unavailable to the tax court with regard to finding the perpetrator of crimes that are understood to have been committed intentionally on behalf of a legal entity or person. In this context, no contradiction or connection problem occurs between the tax court’s failure to annul the triple tax loss penalty for issuing false documents on behalf of the legal person or entity on the grounds of intent regarding the incident nor with the acquittal of the legal person’s legal representative on the grounds that that person is not the perpetrator.Meanwhile, no special knowledge of tax techniques would be required during proceedings for the second type of crimes, such as concealment or invoices created without an agreement with the Ministry of Finance, and therefore the criminal court does not need to wait for the tax court’s ruling. On the contrary, the results from the criminal court should be made available to the tax court. This dual solution can be achieved by the case-law to be formed by the Turkish High Courts. Therefore, this interaction problem can be solved without the need for a new law to be made.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The Question of Interaction between Tax and Criminal Proceedings in  Turkiye in Terms of ECtHR Jurisprudence

Climate change emerges as a global problem directly affecting daily life, and its negative consequences will inevitably result in a deterioration of human rights. This reality has led to many attempts that rely on the current human rights mechanisms for coping with the climate crisis, and the relationship between climate change and human rights is becoming more intense with each passing day. Indeed, such mechanisms require states not only to refrain from violating human rights but also to protect these rights by fulfilling their positive obligations. This tripartite research aims to analyze how the relevant international institutions observe the link between climate change and human rights.The first part of this article draws a general outline of climate change from a human rights-oriented perspective. Climate change is actually expected to worsen the enjoyment of various human rights such as the rights to life, to property, to health, and to food. Human rights lawyers argue that states have certain positive obligations such as taking the necessary measures to adapt to the consequences of climate change in addition to refraining from actions that may increase the effects of climate change. Even though confirming this idea is possible at first glance, this progressive approach still has much to enlighten. Balancing competing rights is also a matter that needs to be resolved, because taking preventive measures against climate change in order to protect human rights on its own may also imply limitations on certain human rights. Moreover, due to climate change being a problem without boundaries, the question of how to allocate responsibility for these measures in order to promote human rights also requires attention.The second part of this article focuses on the responses the European Council has shown toward climate change’s actual and potential negative consequences regarding human rights. In this context, the article examines the respective approaches of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR), the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, and the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe toward this matter. While the ECHR has made no decisions about the issue yet in terms of applications, it does have jurisprudence that might also be relevant in terms of climate change as well. Although the European Convention on Human Rights has no specific article able to be directly linked to climate change, the Court can still act on the matter in cases involving a significant provable disadvantage regarding rights protected by the Convention, such as the right to life or the right to respect for private and family life, home, and correspondence. In addition, policy-making proposals are seen at the parliamentary level, with such initiatives becoming more likely to succeed when considering the fact that public awareness about climate change-related threats is rising.&nbsp;The third part of this article questions the role of the United Nations (UN) in regard to minimizing the negative effects human-induced global warming has on human rights. The UN has already introduced certain international legal instruments that directly focus on climate change. The UN Framework Convention on Climate Change is a general guide that states the principles for preventing and minimizing the negative consequences of climate change. Additionally, the Twin Covenants (i.e., the UN International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights) impose obligations on states to improve the rights and well-being of the individuals in their jurisdiction. In light of such international norms, this section summarizes the means and methods for protecting human rights against climate-related risk and how these are implemented by treaty monitoring organs such as the Human Rights Committee and the UN Human Rights Council.&nbsp;&nbsp;

International Human Rights Law as a Mechanism for Coping with  Climate Change

In criminal procedural law, anything can be considered evidence provided it possesses characteristics pertaining to crime. As regards the principle of having free access to all evidence, no difference exists between digital and physical evidence. Also, due to the hierarchy of evidence being invalid with regard to criminal procedure, making a distinction between which evidence is important/strong or unimportant/weak is not possible. As a result of the tremendous developments in the field of technology also having increased the number of crimes committed regarding information systems, the need for digital evidence has gained increasingly greater importance, as well as its use as a means of proof. However, because the use of evidence obtaining measures such as the search, copy or seize of digital data belonging to individuals constitutes an infringement of many legal values, legislators have also regulated legal measures and bound these to strict conditions.The measure on searching, copying, and seizing evidences from information systems in relation to crimes committed with use of digital technologies is listed in Criminal Procedure Code (Law No. 5271) and constitutes a special instance of the search and seizure protection measures. Article 134 of this Criminal Procedure Code covers the procedures regarding the gathering of data stored on information systems.The topics of this study are the matters of the search, copy and seizure of digital evidence from information systems, and these matters are measures that can be applied to all criminal areas. Legislators have not limited the scope of crime in terms of the application of these measures. In this context, the relevant measures can be applied to all investigations that require the collection of digital evidence, whether for classical or cyber crimes.In order to make a decision regarding the measures regulated in Article 134 of the Criminal Procedure Code, the conditions stipulated in the law must be fulfilled. These conditions are: the presence of strong grounds of suspicion based on concrete evidence and the absence of the possibility of obtaining evidence any other way. Evidence obtained after search, copy and seizure procedures have been made that do not adhere to these legal conditions should also be noted as being unusable as criminal evidence due to being outside the confines of the law. In addition, obtaining digital evidence in accordance with the technical requirements is also extremely important. Obtained evidence must be submitted to the judicial authorities intact and in full. Otherwise, even if this evidence had been collected by field experts, it is neither acceptable as lawful evidence nor will it be taken as a basis for judgment.Article 134 of the Criminal Procedure Code should be amended in accordance with the requirements of the age in the face of the rapidly developing and changing digital technologies. This regulation should also safeguard suspects’ fundamental human rights and freedoms. In addition, the changes should occur rapidly and be sufficient to put an end to all the discussions regarding the doctrine. Due to digital evidence being among the most important evidence of the current day, guarantees should be introduced to ensure that this type of evidence is collected in accordance with the technical requirements and evaluated within the scope of scientific principles.In summary, this paper aims to analyze the processes related to detecting and evaluating digital evidence within the framework of the general principles of criminal procedural law. In this context, the paper examines the search, copy and seizure measures regarding the information systems covered in Article 134 of the Criminal Procedure Code and provides explanations with respect to computers, computer programs and digital files as listed in Article 134. The paper additionally discusses the legal nature of the measures, their conditions and the way they are applied within the framework of discussions regarding the doctrine, the problems experienced in practice and the judicial decisions.

To determine whether a crime is committable through general or specific intent, the legal definition of the crime must first be examined. If the legal definition of a crime mentions that the perpetrator must act with a specific intent such as the aim of benefit, these kinds of crimes are only committable through specific intent.The text of Article 148 of the TCC regulating the crime of plunder does not specifically mention it having to involve the aim of benefit. Therefore, the crime of plunder is said to be committable through general intent. However, in order to determine whether a crime is committable with general intent or specific intent, one accordingly must examine all the features of the crime. For instance, the crime of plunder is considered a combined crime consisting of the theft and coercion or threat thereof in Turkish Criminal Law. As is understood by this, theft is an essential element of the crime of plunder. In other words, the crime of plunder is not committable without theft. Article 141 of the TCC regulating theft also specifically mentions “aim of benefit.” Therefore, this study considers the crime of plunder to be committable only through specific intent (i.e., the aim of benefit). As a matter of fact, the majority view regarding doctrine and court practices is of the same opinion as considered in this study.Both German (Article 249 of Strafgesetzbuch - StGB, in the version published on 13.11.1998) and Austrian law (Article 142 of Strafgesetzbuch – StGB, 23.01.1974) specifically mention “aim of benefit” with regard to the legal definition of the crime of plunder. Therefore neither doctrine nor court practices may dispute that the crime of plunder is only committable through specific intent in German and Austrian law.Due to the aim of benefit having a broad meaning, determine what makes up the content of aim of benefit is compulsory. The dissenting view in terms of doctrine considers the aim of benefit to only involve economic benefit, while the majority view in terms of doctrine acknowledges the aim of benefit to include both economic and immaterial benefits.According to this study’s opinion, the composition of the aim of benefit and the subject of the crime are different from each other. The crime of plunder is regulated in the section titled “Crimes Against Property” in the TCC (Article 148, 26.09.2004). The crimes in this section are intended to protect property, with property being defined as things possessing economic value. As also seen in Turkish Court practices, possessions without economic value (such as a love letter or photograph) cannot be subjected to crimes against property. However, the majority view in terms of doctrine considers that both things possessing economic value as well as things without economic value can be subjected to crimes against property. Due to the laws against crimes listed in the section titled “Crimes Against Property” being intended to protect property, the study considers only things possessing economic value to be subjectable to the crime of plunder. However, a perpetrator can act for both economic and immaterial benefits. In other words, the aim of benefit involve both economic and immaterial benefits.In German law, the perpetrator regarding the crime of plunder must act with the intention of acquiring property, with the intention of acquiring property not involving immaterial benefit. If the perpetrator does act with the aim of immaterial benefit (e.g., vengeance, joy, rage), the perpetrator is unpunishable for the crime of plunder. In Austrian law, the perpetrator regarding the crime of plunder must act with the intention of enrichment. Therefore, Austrian law states the aim of benefit to only involve economic benefit.This study examines the subjective element of the crime of plunder and the scope of what composes the aim of benefit by comparing the Turkish Criminal Code with the legal regulations in the German and Austrian Criminal Codes, their doctrines and judicial decisions and also evaluates certain types of criminal events that have been disputed within the scope of the crime of plunder by considering the German and Austrian models, with the resultant opinion of the study being presented.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Discussions on the Subjective Element of the Crime of Plunder in  Comparison with German and Austrian Law

The attempt is being made these days to design and manage penal institutions as institutions that function to deter, rehabilitate, and prevent criminal behavior. Crime is a natural part of everyday life, especially for repeat offenders, and changing this pattern can be difficult for various reasons. Individuals adopt the social rules that are presented to them in the social environment in which they live; they behave similarly to the behaviors they see.A prisoner joins a new social circle in prison, one that has a significant impact on their future behavior. From this point of view, this study will revise the theories and findings regarding the social causes of crime in terms of prison and will discussed what characteristics an institute should have that will not result in the convict learning new criminal behaviors or methods. Crime transference is the main subject of the study and refers to how a convict with no intention, knowledge, or opportunity to commit a crime is directed toward criminal behavior due to their criminal experiences. Regardless of what crime was committed to get sent to prison, convicts may also conduct various criminal behaviors within the institution. Due to a prison’s structural features, convicts are likely to learn new crimes in order to gain power, status, and money; they may even start and continue to commit these crimes after being released.The first reason for crime transfer is physical proximity. After a convict enters prison, they meet prisoners who were convicted for many different crimes, and these convicts find the opportunity to meet and share their criminal experiences. Having individuals who’ve been convicted of different crimes stay together in crowded wards is a risk factor. In addition to physical proximity, how people spend their time at prison also becomes an important issue. As the time spent with other convicts during the day increases, so does crime transference among these convicts. Being away from emotionally important people (e.g., family, close friends) decreases positive social support factors that help prevent one from committing a crime and increases the likelihood of becoming close with criminals in jail. Society also needs to step in and take responsibility in addition to one’s family and friends. The type of prison is also another factor associated with crime transference. In open prisons, convicts have more opportunities to interact with different people and participate in events (e.g., trainings, workshops). Because of the greater security measures, these opportunities are quite limited in closed prisons, though sometimes convicts may have to contact more serious criminals. As the length of time in prison increases, the likelihood and severity of crime transference also increases. Day by day, prisoners lose their everyday skills (finding a job, avoiding criminals), and the likelihood of becoming a repeat offender also increases.Completely eliminating crime transfer in penitentiary institutions is not a realistic goal. However, measures can be taken to minimize it. Which measures to take and which legal regulations and possible changes in the physical and administrative structures of penitentiary institutions undoubtedly are in conflict in terms of priority. Although the existence of crime transfer is a real thing, the majority of convicts in prisons do not commit these crimes, do not join a crime organization, and do not establish crime partnerships. Therefore, having individuals stay in non-crowded units housing 4-6 people at maximum and having them avoid individuals guilty of other crimes may reduce crime transfer that is a result of physical proximity. Employing detainees and convicts in a workshop for regular, 8-hour work periods while taking into account security measures will not only reduce the possibility of crime transfer in their free time but also ensure that the individual does not wander away from their normal life responsibilities and order. Expanding measures to maintain relations external to a prison (e.g., e-meetings, e-mail opportunities) will protect convicts from crime transference and prepare them for life after release. Improving reliable assessment tools for measuring recidivism risks and suitability for release will help isolate highand low-risk prisoners from each other. Proper and successful isolation procedures prevent crime transference in institutions.While convicts are imprisoned, non-governmental organizations can support and become models in a variety of ways such as through correspondence, financial support, and role-playing projects. Carrying out projects in institutions can help rescue convicts from a passive and assisted position. Having prisoners adopt an effective attitude where they are responsible and a direct part of change, applying an approach that protects prisoners from crime transference, and preparing them for post-release are all very important.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Crime Transference: Are Prisons Universities of Crime?

The changes in the scope of the concepts of crime, punishment, and execution throughout history have brought the issue of amnesty to the agenda when the necessary situations arise. Amnesty means the forgiveness of a crime and, as a legal concept, is the mitigation or complete cancelation of punishments that have been or are being lawfully imposed by the competent authority. This practice has a history as old as crime, punishment, and execution, is now found in many legal systems, and mainly concerns constitutional and criminal law.Amnesty laws were usually enacted during or after revolutions, wars, and revolts. The aim is to reintegrate into society those who have violated public order, restore state authority, and eliminate the need for soldiers. As with other laws, amnesty laws have explanations of the reasons for which they were legislated. However, sometimes these are not the main reasons for passing laws. Amnesty laws may also be promulgated on grounds where no benefit is seen to exist in continuing to punish a crime, where it is seen as a solution for closing loopholes in the law and remedying injustice, or where a particular group of crimes or criminals will be pardoned. These reasons also include state interests and the decimation of a repressive regime.Terms such as Afv-ı Âli, Afv-ı Umumi, and Afv-ı Şahane were used for the pardons declared in the Ottoman Empire. Amnesty laws with these words in their titles were often promulgated for the following reasons: • Pardoning prisoners with chronic illness, • Celebrating a Sultan’s accession to the throne, • Celebrating a Sultan’s birthday, • Forgiving some criminals as a result of a Sultan’s visit to a city, • Celebrating national/holy days,In addition, amnesty laws were declared before, during, or after wars and riots. The first of the most regulated periods of amnesty laws in Turkish history was during the reign of Abdul Hamid II. The main purposes of the pardons promulgated during this period were to use them as a political argument in foreign policy, to prevent seditious activities caused by many internal and external factors, and to restore public order and the state authority that had been damaged by riots and revolutionary movements.&nbsp;After the Second Constitutional Revolution in 1908, the government proclaimed a general amnesty for those who had committed acts referred to as political crimes. Thus, the rights of all victims who had been harmed by Abdul Hamid’s repressive rule were restored. In addition, people who had been arrested or convicted for political or serious crimes in Istanbul and other regions were evacuated by the government due to fear of a public uprising.As far as can be ascertained for this period covering 1908-1918, 34 laws are found in which the question off amnesty was regulated. Only six of these laws belonged to the first year of the Second Constitutional Revolution. The impact of the amnesty laws legislated between 1908-1909 regarding prisons, society, and public order were the most controversial issues of the Second Constitutional Revolution.During this period, amnesty laws that had been enacted for political crimes began to be implemented rapidly, but the amnesty was not easy to enforce because those excluded from the amnesty began to cause riots in the prisons. As a result, the government lost control over some prisons, and uncontrolled riots occurred.If the scope of the amnesty law had not been expanded after the government lost control, it would have obviously occurred by itself, and the state would have been humiliated. For this reason, amnesty was expanded to include serious crimes, and many people were freed from prison. However, the amnesty for serious crimes made people nervous, and the public organized protests against this type of amnesty.Between 1908-1918, numerous amnesty laws were enacted for various reasons. In particular, the release of people who had committed serious crimes led to an increase in the crime rate, because many of the old criminals who’d been released started committing crimes again. For this reason, repressive laws and practices were used to ensure public order, even if it meant limiting human rights.Between 1908-1918, numerous amnesty laws were enacted for various reasons.

The right to be informed of the accusation is not explicitly regulated in the Turkish Constitution. According to the Constitutional Court, the right to be informed of the accusation derives from Article 36 of the Constitution. Besides guaranteeing the general right to a fair trial, Article 6 protects specific rights, such the right to be informed of the accusation. Article 6 (3) (a) of the Convention enacts a right for the suspect/accused to be informed of the accusation. Article 6 § 3 (a) of the Convention guarantees the right for everyone charged with criminal offence “to be informed promptly, in a language which he understands and in detail, of the nature and cause of the accusation against him.” The scope of Article 6 § 3 (a) of the Convention must be assessed in light of the more general right to a fair hearing guaranteed by Article 6 § 1 of the Convention. The aim of this provision seems clear: the right to defend oneself can only be exercised effectively if the accused knows what he/she is accused of. Furthermore, the right to be informed of the accusation is related to the principle of equality of arms. It is not possible for a defendant who does not know the accusation against them to defend themselves.&nbsp;Within this article, we analyze the right to be informed of the accusation in the framework of the guarantees provided by the Constitution and the Convention in light of the decisions and judgments of the Constitutional Court and the ECHR. The case law of ECHR is also consistent in holding that information must include both the cause and nature of the accusation. The cause of accusation means the material facts alleged against the accused, while the nature of the accusation refers to the legal qualification of these material facts. While the extent of the “detailed” information depends on the particular circumstances of each case, who the victim is, where, when, how and why the crime was committed should be understood from the accusation.From the words “in a language which he understands” it follows that if a defendant is not familiar with the language used by the court, the information must be translated for him. The provision does not specify if the relevant information should be given in writing or translated in written form for a foreign defendant. Also, the information must be submitted to the accused in due time to prepare their defense. Whether the required information has been furnished “promptly” has to be assessed in the conditions of each individual case.During the course of the proceedings, the judge can give a new legal characterization to the acts on which the accusation is based. However, the accused must be duly and&nbsp;fully informed of any changes in the accusation and must be provided with adequate time and facilities to organize his defense based on any new information or allegations.The most important problem regarding the right to be informed of the accusation in Turkish law is that, at least, indictments are not prepared in accordance with the standards set by the Constitution. This problem is the main source of many problems related to the basic principles of criminal procedure law. Failure to prepare an indictment with the required standards causes people to be accused arbitrarily. However, The Turkish Code of Criminal Procedure includes provisions regarding this right far beyond the standards set by the Constitution and the Convention. These provisions should be implemented not only to reduce violations of rights, but also as a requirement of being a state that respects human rights.&nbsp;&nbsp;

If we placed all of our personal data in a circle, the information coming from a molecular genetic analysis of our DNA would be located at the center point. This centre point symbolizes our sensitive personal data. Compared with other branches of law, criminal procedural law is the branch of law which most needs personal data and therefore performs the most interventions in accordance with its proceedings. Moreover, data in the category of sensitive personal data has a great importance in terms of criminal procedure. Since DNA samples cannot be manipulated and provide results with close to 100 percent accuracy, they offer a valuable type of evidence in terms of revealing the material truth. Depending on the offense committed, the molecular genetic analysis method therefore constitutes an important approach in the investigation and prosecution phases of criminal procedure, as being a method of reading the markers expressed in DNA data. Making use of DNA samples is important for criminal procedural law, but it requires using sensitive personal data. For this reason, the need for protecting sensitive personal data should be taken into consideration from the very beginning of the criminal procedure through to the conclusion. In this study, the molecular genetic analysis method in criminal procedural law will be evaluated, especially with regard to the protection of personal data. To this end, firstly the definition of personal data and the classification of specific personal data will be given and subsequently the legal provisions in Turkish criminal procedural law will be examined in detail. As will be seen, in terms of molecular genetic analysis, there are important provisions in the Turkish legislation regarding the protection of personal data. The most important one of these provisions is allowing the application of this method only in cases of where a judge renders a decision based on essentiality. In addition to specifically regulating confidentiality, the objectivity of the expert who makes this analysis and the destruction of the samples used in the analysis have also been regulated. After the evaluation of Turkish legislation, views on the possibility of establishing a national DNA data bank in Turkey, will be discussed. In this regard, opinions in the doctrine shall be presented and the obsolete draft Act on a national DNA data bank in Turkey will be explained. After this comprehensive analysis of the Turkish law, the next topic will be the&nbsp;regulation of molecular genetic analysis in comparative law. In that context, since the related Articles of the Turkish Criminal Procedure Code (CPC) have been translated from the German Criminal Procedure Code (StGB), the first country to be compared will be Germany. In this way, to avoid repeating the same provisions, two different methods will be explained which are regulated in the StGB but which do not appear in the CPC. These are: mass DNA analysis and data storage used for future criminal procedures. In other words a DNA data bank. The second country to be examined after Germany is the United Kingdom. This is because until the ECtHR’s famous decision in the Case of S. and Marper v. the United Kingdom this country had implemented a highly controversial system. Until this decision, the United Kingdom kept DNA cell samples for an indefinite period. Since this kind of application constitutes a very serious interference to the right to privacy regulated in Article 8 of ECHR, the ECtHR ruled against the United Kingdom, and the country made some amendments to its domestic law. Following the United Kingdom, the United States of America will be examined due to it having the largest DNA data bank in the world. This DNA data bank, named CODIS, is used by the FBI. Subsequently, other countries such as France, Italy and Canada (where national DNA data banks have existed for a long time) will be examined, and the different features of the practices in these countries will be explained. In the conclusion, a general evaluation and some important suggestions will be made which should be taken into consideration in case of the establishment of a national DNA data bank in Turkey. In this context, countries that have the most positive practices regarding the protection of personal data will be given as examples. Thus, the recommendations will be given for reaching and even going beyond the levels of international standards.&nbsp;

Evaluation of Molecular Genetic Analysis in Criminal Procedure Law in Terms of Protection of Sensitive Personal Data

Our study examines the concept of “serious crime” that leads to withdrawal of donation. This may be due to the donee committing a serious crime against the donor or one of the donors’ relatives, which can be a reason for the withdrawal of donations, regulated by the Turkish Obligation Code (TOC) art. 295 I b 1. We refer to “severe crime,” as defined in the Turkish Civil Code art. 510, which regulates the grounds for debarment from inheritance. However, evaluations of severe crime that lead to debarment from inheritance may not be valid when considering the grounds for withdrawal of donation. In case of debarment from inheritance, the person whom the legator is debarring from his/her inheritance may be the heir according to the legator, yet there may be no such relationship between the donor and the donee. The proximity between the donor and the donee may not be as intense as in inheritance law. How can the concept of “serious crime” then be interpreted in terms of the withdrawal of donation? Is it possible, in this case, to deploy the assessments of criminal law? In the context of our study, we attempt to find answers to this question. To not exceed the scope of our study, we evaluate the concept of severe crime only with reference to withdrawal of donation. To gain an understanding of the concept of “serious crime” based on the TOC 295 I 1, a dual distinction must be in place to express the reason for a donee committing a serious crime against a donor or one of his/her relatives. The first distinction is “crime,” and the second distinction is “serious”. This distinction should not be regarded as purely theoretical because when withdrawing a donation, the offense committed by the donee is characterized as “crime” in terms of criminal law. When a donation is withdrawn, the offense committed by the donee is characterized as “crime” in terms of criminal law. To evaluate whether the offending act is a crime or not, referring to criminal law is sufficient. The fact that the offense is characterized as “crime” serves as an objective condition for the withdrawal of a donation when it is a serious crime. The second distinction required is to define the term “serious.” A crime is characterized as “serious” based on private law regulations in relation to the withdrawal of the donation. The criminal law issue will not be effective in this regard. The private law judge evaluates two types of issues when determining the concept of “serious crime”: objective and subjective. When determining subjective issues, the judge examines the following three elements: whether the crime justifies the existence of ingratitude, any damage caused to the donor because of the crime, and the objective justification for&nbsp;this damage. The judge should examine the nature of each specific case type, the extent of the donation, the motivation of the donor to donate, the motivation of the donee in relation to the offense, whether the donor is at fault or not, and whether these three elements exist together.

“Serious Crime” in Terms of the Withdrawal of the Donation

Restorative justice is an alternative practice of justice whereby offenders and victims voluntarily encounter, empathise and finally reconcile with each other in the presence of family and relatives, and other mediators. It has emerged as a substitute for the criminalising effects and humane-fiscal cost of the retributive justice system and initiated the active participation of community members in justice procedure. In this regard, community values and norms function as replacements for the written law of the state and criminal justice courts but with regard to more integrating and inclusionary means. The aim is, simply, to restore the broken rule of law by reintegrating perpetrators into the law-abiding community. The main condition for reconciliation between parties relies on a mutual positive emotional interaction and transference between parties, the aim of which is to make offenders reflect on their illicit behaviours and ultimately feel shame and remorse. Even though debates mostly focus on the judicial and socio-cultural viability of this alternative justice system, it is the possibility of a positive emotional interaction that plays a critical role in setting peace and reconciliation between victim and offenders. The idealised process is personified by the revealing of positive emotional expressions, mutual empathy and understanding between the parties in a conflict of interest. A psychosocial criminological approach to the evidence found in the literature on restorative justice has thus far shown that shame and remorse are the two key emotions anticipated for reconciliation in this setting. While not referenced explicitly, this emotional interaction process bears rather on a psychosocial character given that certain psychoanalytical processes are implicitly at work when victims and offenders are seeking to empathise with each other. Given the previous successful results of restorative justice conferences, emotional interaction between the parties has been observed to lead to the construction of mutual empathy and final closure, relying on identification and transference. In the course of the interaction, certain emotional turning points have been identified as taking place between the victim and the offenders, the latter of whom attempts to initiate a possible closure by symbolicemotional posture, facial expressions and gestures. These emotional turning points usually change the course of the conversation between the parties, resulting in the expression of a cordial apology by the offender and its acceptance by victim. However, studies on restorative justice reveal the problem of offenders’ sincerity and the genuineness of their remorse and guilt in such encounters. Some researchers&nbsp;argue that a genuine flow of shame and remorse, in an idealised form, is not displayed by offenders in contrast to the idealised expectations. To exemplify this, setting out the findings of the South Australia Juvenile Justice Research and Conferencing Project, Kathleen Daly draws attention to the fact that victims thought that only 30 per cent of offenders’ apologies were genuine, whereas offenders claimed that 60 per cent of apologies were truly sorry. This means that victims do not think offenders’ apologies are sincere and that offenders think that their apology does not truly reflect any genuine intent. Put it another way, the evidences suggest that there is a radical difference between offenders’ psychic-inner experiences and the presentation of themselves regarding the imperatives of restorative justice setting. This paper offers a conceptual distinction between emotion and affect as viewed from a psychoanalytically-inflected psychosocial criminological perspective. It further argues that emotion refers to symbolic bodily–linguistic signifiers being adaptable and consciously manipulable according to social contexts, whilst affect indicates an energy or intensities experienced unconsciously and not being symbolised. Setting out various case studies and pieces of evidence, the paper suggests that under the pressure of negative affects such as anxiety and fear of a possible failure of the restorative justice conference, offenders tend to display positive symbolic-emotional representations in a way that would convince victims and other mediators of their guilt and shame. The latter usually leads to the expected–idealised result of the victim-offender encounter. Thus, affective intensities in the emotional turning points need to be considered within the interaction process between victim and offender. A psychosocial criminological perspective should always be taken into consideration while restorative justice practices are claimed to be successful and implemented in a specific social and judicial setting.

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 kişi olarak görülür. Yazar olabilmenin diğer koşulu ise, makaledeki çalışmayı planlamak veya icra etmek ve/veya revize etmektir. Fon sağlanması, veri toplanması ya da araştırma grubunun genel süpervizörlüğü tek başına yazarlık hakkı kazandırmaz. Yazar olarak gösterilen tüm kişiler, sayılan tüm ölçütleri karşılamalı ve yukarıdaki ölçütleri karşılayan her kişi, yazar olarak gösterilmelidir. Yazarların isim sıralaması ortak verilen bir karar olmalıdır. Tüm yazarlar, yazar sıralamasını <a href="https://cdn.istanbul.edu.tr/file/JTA6CLJ8T5/0CEFE36784F44C599A77D76F95DE3DAA" target="_blank">Telif Hakkı Anlaşması Formunda</a> imzalı olarak belirtmek zorundadırlar.Yazarlık için yeterli ölçütleri karşılamayan, ancak çalışmaya katkısı olan tüm kişiler, “teşekkür/bilgiler” kısmında sıralanmalıdır. Bunlara sadece teknik destek sağlayan, yazıma yardımcı olan ya da sadece genel bir destek sağlayan, finansal ve materyal desteği sunan kişiler örnek olarak gösterilebilir.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.

Editör; makaleleri, yazarların etnik kökeninden, cinsiyetinden, cinsel yöneliminden, uyruğundan, dini inancından, siyasi ve felsefi düşüncesinden bağımsız olarak değerlendirir. Ayrıca editör, 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. Hakemden gelen rapor doğrultusunda yazının yayınlanmasına, yazardan rapor çerçevesinde düzeltme istenmesine ya da yazının geri çevrilmesine karar verir ve yazarı durumdan en kısa sürede haberdar eder. Editör, içerik ve yayının toplam kalitesinden sorumludur. Ayrıca editör, gerektiğinde hata sayfası yayınlamalı ya da düzeltme yapmalıdır.Editör; yazarlar, editörler ve hakemler arasında çatışmaya izin vermez. Hakem atama konusunda tam yetkiye sahiptir ve dergide yayınlanacak makalelerle ilgili nihai kararı vermekle yükümlüdür.Hakemler; makaleleri, yazarların etnik kökeninden, cinsiyetinden, cinsel yöneliminden, uyruğundan, dini inancından, siyasi ve felsefi düşüncesinden bağımsız olarak değerlendirirler. Araştırmayla ilgili, yazarlarla ve/veya araştırmanın finansal destekçileriyle çıkar çatışmaları olmamalıdır. Değerlendirmelerinin sonucunda tarafsız bir yargıya varmalıdırlar. Hakemler, yazarların atıfta bulunmadığı konuyla ilgili yayınlanmış çalışmaları tespit etmelidirler. Gönderilmiş yazılara ilişkin tüm bilgilerin gizli tutulmasını sağlamalı ve yazar tarafından herhangi bir telif hakkının ihlal edildiğini ve intihal yapıldığını fark ederlerse editöre raporlamalıdırlar. Hakem, makale konusu hakkında kendini vasıflı hissetmiyor ya da zamanında geri dönüş sağlayamayacağını düşünüyorsa, editöre bu durumu derhal bildirmeli ve editörden 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 kendileri için makalelerin kopyalarını çıkarmalarına izin verilmez. Ayrıca hakemler, editörün izni olmadan makaleleri başkasına veremezler. Yazarın ve editörün izni olmadan hakemlerin gözden geçirmeleri basılamaz ve açıklanamaz. 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.
