Introduction 1. Turkey has the honour to present its fourth, fifth and sixth periodic reports in a single consolidated document to the Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination on the legislative, judicial, administrative and other measures which give effect to the provisions of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (hereinafter referred to as the Convention), in accordance with article 9 thereof. 2. The report, which contains data from 2007 until 2013 inclusively, has been prepared under the coordination of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs with the contribution of the relevant ministries, public institutions and Parliamentary commission. 3. Turkey is fully committed to the fight against racism and racial discrimination as defined in the Convention. With this understanding, Turkey became party to the Convention in 2002 and incorporated sound and effective measures into its legislation with a genuine commitment to combating racial discrimination. 4. In its instrument of ratification, Turkey made two declarations and one reservation. In this respect, with regard to paragraph 8 of the Concluding Observations of the Committee of 2009 CERD/C/TUR/CO/3 (hereinafter referred to as the Concluding Observations of the Committee), the Turkish Government is of the view that its declarations and reservation are permissible under international law and compatible with the object and purpose of the Convention. The Government has not announced any decision to withdraw any of its existing declarations or reservation to the Convention. 5. The constitutional system of Turkey is based on the equality of all individuals without discrimination before the law, irrespective of language, race, colour, sex, political opinion, philosophical belief, religion and sect, or any such considerations (Article 10 of the Constitution). 6. In line with the fundamental principles of equality and non-discrimination, every Turkish citizen is considered an integral part of the nation. Diversity is the source of richness of Turkish society. 7. Concerning paragraph 9 of the Concluding Observations of the Committee whereby Committee regrets the lack of statistical data in the report of Turkey on the ethnic composition of its population, the Turkish Government would like to reiterate that it does not collect, maintain or use either qualitative or quantitative data on ethnicity. It is believed that this is a sensitive issue, especially for those nations living in diverse multicultural societies for a long period of time. Diversity has deep roots in Turkey. Hence, Turkey has focused on commonalities and common aspirations in the legislative and policy framework, rather than measuring differences and making policies thereon. 8. As a testimony to Turkey’s commitment to further strengthening human rights and freedoms, yet another “democratization package” was unveiled on 30 September 2013 which proposes comprehensive reforms for improvement and enjoyment of a wide- spectrum of civil and political rights for citizens of Turkey from all walks of life. Relevant provisions of these reform proposals are introduced throughout the report. 9. Information concerning the recommendations contained in the Concluding Observations of the Committee is presented throughout the report. 3 CERD/C/TUR/4-6 II. Information on specific articles Article 1 1. Definition of racial discrimination in domestic law and the Convention Definition of racial discrimination in domestic law 10. Article 90 of the Turkish Constitution states that international agreements duly put into effect bear the force of law and directly become a part of Turkish domestic legislation. As such, when approved by the Turkish Parliament on 16 October 2002, the Convention became an integral part of Turkey’s national legislation and the definition of racial discrimination laid down in the Convention is directly applicable in Turkey and can be invoked before Turkish courts. In case of conflict with the provisions of the national laws on the same matter, international agreements in the area of fundamental rights and freedoms, e.g. the Convention–prevail. 11. The constitutional system of Turkey is based on the equality of all individuals without discrimination before the law, irrespective of “language, race, color, sex, political opinion, philosophical belief, religion and sect, or any such considerations” (Article 10). By referring to “or any such considerations”, the Constitution grants the judiciary wide discretion on its judgment of cases of inequality before the law. 12. Existing Turkish legislation – namely the Constitution, penal code, civil code, labour law, civil servants law, law on political parties, law on the execution of penalties and security, basic law on national education, law on the establishment of radio and television enterprises and their media services, law on social services, law on the establishment of ombudsman, law on the establishment and duties of the Turkish Football Federation, law on prevention of violence and disorder at sport, law on the establishment and duties of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Turkish Armed Forces discipline law – provides for prohibition of and protection against discrimination and racism. (For discussion of constitutional provisions and laws providing protections against racial and ethnic discrimination, please see discussion under Article 2.). 13. With regard to paragraph 17 of the Concluding Observations of the Committee concerning the absence of a comprehensive anti-discrimination legislation as well as paragraph 11 regarding the absence of prohibition of all the grounds of discrimination stated in Article 1 of the Covenant, relevant Government institutions drafted a comprehensive anti-discrimination legislation which covers the prohibited grounds of discrimination set out by Article 1 of the Convention. The draft “Law on Anti- Discrimination and Equality” is before the Office of the Prime Minister. 14. According to the Draft Law, the prohibition of discrimination is laid down to include discrimination based on sex, race, color, language, belief, ethnic origin, philosophical or political opinion, social status, marital status, state of health, disability or age. The prohibition shall be binding on the legislative, executive and judicial authorities as well as all natural and legal persons. In cases of violations, the public authorities who have been entrusted with the task and authority in such matters are under the obligation of taking the necessary measures to end such violations, eliminate their consequences, prevent recurrence and conduct judicial and administrative

This paper examines the emigration and immigration system of Turkey and its cor- related visions of development. For that purpose, the paper will study the major characteristics and dynamics of emigration from Turkey into Europe (in particular Germany and the Nether- lands), and the major impact on host societies as well as on Turkey. The analysis gives particular attention to the extent to which Turkish emigration and the Turkish Diaspora have influenced economic, political and social development in Turkey. In a similar manner, we will examine the evolving nature of immigration into Turkey. Finally, we give attention to the place of these issues in EU–Turkish relations. The parallel development of Turkish migrants becoming per- manent residents in Europe and of Turkey receiving new – potentially permanent – migrants from its surrounding region are discussed with a close look at what kind of impact this has on Turkey itself.

  • THE RIGHT to CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTION in EUROPE: a Review of the Current Situation
    THE RIGHT TO CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTION IN EUROPE: A Review of the Current Situation Quaker Council for European Affairs Preface Aware of the fact that conscientious objectors are still treated harshly in some European countries and that the right to conscientious objection is not even recognized in all the member states of the Council of Europe, the Quaker Council for European Affairs commissioned this report to highlight the problems which still remain in Europe with regard to the right to conscientious objection to military service. This report provides an overview of the current situation in Europe. In recent years many developments have taken place with regard to conscription and conscientious objection. Several European countries have suspended conscription although by 2005 most European countries still maintain conscription and most European young men are still liable to perform military service. In many countries, particularly in Eastern Europe, the Balkans and the former Soviet Union, both legal regulations on the recognition of the right to conscientious objection and actual practice are changing quickly. In other European countries, the right to conscientious objection is still not recognized fully or at all and governments persist in harsh treatment of conscientious objectors. Although there is a wealth of information available about conscription and conscientious objection in some countries, surprisingly little is known about others. Moreover, there is no recent comparative survey on conscientious objection in easily accessible format. The last survey of this kind was published in 1998 by War Resisters' International ('Refusing to bear arms - a world survey of conscription and conscientious objection to military service'), which answered the need of many organisations working on issues of conscription and conscientious objection.

  • Developing a Road Map for Engaging Diasporas in Development
    Developing a Road Map for Engaging Diasporas in Development A HANDBOOK FOR POLICYMAKERS AND PRACTITIONERS IN HOME AND HOST COUNTRIES Dovelyn Rannveig Agunias and Kathleen Newland 95 Chapter 5: Reducing Barriers Creating a conducive atmosphere is a critical first step toward diaspora engagement. As already noted, members of diasporas were instrumental in bringing development closer to home long before the introduction of formal “diaspora and development” programs. These connections occur spontaneously and are driven by a wide range of motivations, from the purely altruistic to the profit oriented, but they 5: REDUCING BARRIERS CHAPTER share one thing in common: they happen with little or no government intervention and even in the face of government resistance. One option for policymakers, then, is to encourage spontaneous engagement. But how is this done? Policymakers’ best bet is to put in place a legislative and regulatory framework that promotes diaspora involvement. Such a framework should create a web of privileges and obligations designed for a highly mobile population with multiple affinities. This chapter focuses on six sets of laws and regulations that governments have adopted to meet this goal. Many have been introduced since the year 2000. All aim to eliminate regulatory and legislative provisions that either restrict or discourage members of diasporas from traveling between home and host countries or from fully participating in their origin countries’ polity, society, and economy. Creating a conducive framework is generally not tied to a specific development goal. It may, nonetheless, have a significant developmental impact, in part by gaining diaspora members’ trust and therefore encouraging their contributions to development.

  • Children of Syrian Refugees Exposed to Statelessness Master Thesis
    BORN IN EXILE – Children of Syrian Refugees Exposed to Statelessness Master Thesis Kristína Melicherová (Anr: 494176) Tilburg University LLM International and European Law Thesis Supervisor: Dr Laura van Waas Second Reader: Dr Anna Meijknecht Abstract The phenomenon of statelessness affects all regions of the world. Children belong to those who are vulnerable the most. Among all different causes of statelessness, the nexus between statelessness and migration has lately become of particular importance. Since 2011, the Syrian civil war has caused that millions of Syrians were forced to flee their country. This situation has left a new generation of Syrian children at risk of statelessness. According to the Article 7 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, all children have the right to nationality and birth registration without any discrimination. Nevertheless, in the context of Syrian refugees, not all children are profiting from the legal safeguards. This thesis aims to identify the causes and reasons which expose the children of Syrian refugees born in exile to statelessness. To address this burning issue, nationality laws of seven countries – Syria, Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, Sweden and Germany are analyzed and compared. Tree essential aspects that are considered within the comparative study are (1) national legal safeguards relating to preclusion of childhood statelessness at birth, (2) the international standards adopted by country and (3) examples from real practice of the state towards Syrian refugee children.
