Principles of Turkish Administrative Law

The book broadly covers Commercial Law and Employment Law as subject areas, and also Competition Law and Insurance Law in detail. It aims at providing the reader with a broad overview of the legal transactions that a business enterprise would engage in. To realize public interest, the administration is granted with superior powers, namely public force. In return, in a state governed by the rule of law, a mechanism is needed to protect the rights of persons before “public force” and to secure the lawfulness of the “powerful” administration. Administrative law may be seen as a balance between public interest which is in favor of people as a community and public force which restricts the rights of persons. This book covers the general principles that administration should abide by, while serving for public interest by using public force.
