Summary:

English-speaking legal practitioners and academics have here an ideal introduction to the basic institutions, principles, and rules of Turkish law. Encompassing all the major fields of legal practice, Introduction to Turkish Law provides an essential understanding of the Turkish legal system, so that users can become familiar with law and legal processes in Turkey and pursue further research on specific Turkish legal matters.

Eleven chapters, written by Turkish experts in their areas of specialty, focus on particular fields and provide also the Turkish equivalents of English terminology. The book covers the following topics: sources of Turkish law; constitutional law; administrative law; legal persons and business associations; family and inheritance matters; property; obligations; criminal law; and, the laws of civil and criminal procedure.

The Fifth Edition reflects the continuing adaptation of Turkish law to international standards - especially in light of Turkey's aspirations to membership in the European Union - and incorporates the changes brought by the Civil Code of 2002. A comprehensive and updated list of books and articles in English on Turkish law is appended. This concise, practical, and up-to-date guide is sure to continue providing interested parties with a speedy and reliable opening to many areas of Turkish law they need to learn about. Book jacket.
