Kağan, eski Orta-Asya Türk Kamu Hukuku’nun temel sujesiydi. Egemenlik hakkını doğrudan kullanan kağanın çok önemli görev ve sorumlulukları bulunmaktaydı. Kağan bir yandan da bazı temel nitelik ve vasıflara sahip olmalıydı. Bütün bunlar güçlü bir devlet yapısının sağlanabilmesinin temel koşulları olarak çeşitli kaynaklarda sıralanmışlardır.
Kagan was the basic subject of the ancient Turkish Middle – Asian Public
Law. As known, Turkish kagan had his sovereignty power from the Tengri.
Kagan, who directly used the right of sovereignty had important duties and
responsibilities. Lots of essential qualifications which kagans should have had
as being sophisticated, wise, encouraged, powerful, hero, honest, virtuous,
generous, humble, cautious, awake, patient, merciful, forgiving; smooth
spoken, fulleyed, self contained, coming from ancestry and keeping his word,
ect. were determined in different sources belonged to ancient Turks. On the
other hand, not to be arrogant, not to touch the illicit, not to drink alcohol, not
to gamble or not to hold a grudge can be added to the list.
All these qualifications were considered as the basic conditions of
providing strong sate structure and they enlightened the Turkish Public Law
for long centuries. However, the principles expressed in the sources were
presented for an ideal state structure, not for present situations. As long as
obeying the expressed principles, it was possible that the states would be long
termed, otherwise the process of breaking would start, easily. The ancient
Middle-Asian Turkish history is full of many samples of this fact.
