The book is intended to give the reader an overview, with a fair amount of details, of the major topics concerning conflict of law rules and international jurisdiction in Turkey. It is hoped that this collection of 13 articles will be of some use to foreign practising lawyers and scholars as preliminary reference and key to the basic private international law concepts of Turkish law. The collection starts with articles giving general remarks on Turkish Private International Law, followed by some conflict of law rules on divorce, matrimonial property, adoption, maintenance, contractual and non-contractual relations. The last articles in this book are concerned with the international jurisdiction of Turkish courts and the recognition and enforcement of foreign court decisions and arbitral awards in Turkey.
