Prof. Dr. Ahmet Hamdi Topal was born on May 5, 1974, in Eynesil, Giresun. He graduated from Istanbul University Faculty of Law in 1996, completed his master’s degree in 1999 at Marmara University, Department of Public Law, and earned his Ph.D. in 2005 at Ankara University, Department of Public Law.
Topal began his academic career in 1998 as a Research Assistant in the Department of International Relations at Karadeniz Technical University, Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences. He was appointed Assistant Professor at the same university in 2005, Associate Professor at Istanbul Medipol University in 2013, and Professor at the same university in 2018.
During his doctoral studies, he spent one year in the United States as a visiting researcher at Florida State University. In addition to serving as a project evaluator, referee, and panelist in various institutions, Topal also acts as a reviewer for several academic journals.
Specializing in international law, human rights, terrorism, the law of armed conflict, and international criminal responsibility, Topal is the author of several notable works. His book International Terrorism and the Use of Force Against Terrorist Acts examines methods of combating terrorism, which poses a significant threat to international peace and security and endangers all states and humanity without distinction. The work particularly discusses the use of force in response to state-sponsored terrorist attacks within the framework of the prohibition on the use of force, which has become a peremptory norm, and analyzes related case studies.
In his book Sexual Crimes in International Criminal Proceedings, he explores the role of international law and its legal framework in preventing sexual violence during armed conflicts and punishing perpetrators. Within this context, taking the International Criminal Court as the main reference, the book examines the legal criteria governing sexual violence, the concept of sexual crimes, and their constituent elements in light of decisions rendered by international judicial bodies.
His work Refugee Law and Armed Conflict-Induced Asylum Seekers addresses the legal framework concerning victims of conflict and war who flee armed conflicts—particularly civil wars—and seek refugee status in another country. The study focuses on the international protection regime embodied in the 1951 Geneva Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees and discusses alternative practices and solutions to fill the protection gap that has emerged.
On May 24, 2019, Prof. Dr. Ahmet Hamdi Topal was appointed as the Rector of Kastamonu University by the President of the Republic of Türkiye, H.E. Recep Tayyip Erdoğan. He was reappointed to this position on August 1, 2023.
