Abstract

C haos theory is a new approach model which has filled an important gap in the analysis of disorder and nonlinear behaviors of dynamic systems. It has recently been noticed to present a fairly useful theoretical and methodological framework for social sciences as well as physical sciences. Accordingly, this study aims to perform a theoretical analysis regarding the contributions of chaos theory to modern jurisprudence in terms of disorder and nonlinearity parameters. As a result of this theoretical examination, chaos theory was found to become a new theoretical model developing in the scope of postmodern paradigm which can be an alternative to pro-order, linear and deterministic character of modern paradigm. It was also analyzed the possible availability of some chaos theory basic principles such as butterfly effect, bifurcation, entropy and irreversibility in examining what kind of legal problems

Kaos Teorisi ve Modern Hukuk Bilimi: Düzen ve Doğrusallık Parametrelerinin Yapı Sökümü Üzerine Bir Deneme

Abstract

Kaos teorisi, dinamik sistemlerin düzensiz ve doğrusal olmayan davranışlarının analizinde önemli bir boşluğu dolduran yeni bir yaklaşım modelidir. Son zamanlarda teorinin fen bilimleri gibi sosyal bilimler için de oldukça kullanışlı bir teorik ve metodolojik çerçeve sunduğu fark edilmiştir. Buna isti-naden, bu çalışma kaos teorisinin düzensizlik ve doğrusal olmama parametreleri bakımından modern hukuk bilimine olan katkılarının teorik bir analizini yapmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu teorik incelemenin bir neticesi olarak kaos teorisinin modern paradigmanın düzenden yana, doğrusal ve determinist ka-rakterine alternatif olabilecek postmodern paradigma kapsamında gelişen yeni bir teorik model oldu-ğu saptanmıştır. Çalışmada aynı zamanda kaos teorisinin kelebek etkisi, çatallanma, entropi ve geri dönüşsüzlük gibi bazı temel prensiplerinin ne tür hukuksal sorunların incelenmesinde olası bir imkan olduğu analiz edilmiştir.
