Abstract

Siyasetin finansmanı hem demokratik siyasal düzen hem de siyasette etik açısından çok büyük bir önem taşımaktadır. Siyaset-para ilişkilerinin yasama sürecinde büyük çıkar çatışmalarına yol açabileceği bilincinden yola çıkarak siyasetin finansmanı konusunda uluslararası düzenlemelere uygun çağdaş bir sistemin kurulması gerekliliği göz ardı edilmemelidir. Bu bilinçle, bu Makale’de siyasetin finansmanı ile ilgili genel kavramlara yer verilmekte, uluslararası hukuk, düzenlemeler ve uygulamalar incelenmekte ve Türkiye’de siyasetin finansmanı ile ilgili sorunlar tespit edilmektedir. Aynı zamanda, bu Makale’de Türkiye’de siyasetin finansmanıyla ilgili bir mevzuat çalışması değerlendirilmesi yapılmakta ve sonuç olarak yasal altyapı kurulması için tavsiyelerde bulunulmaktadır.

Political Finance in Turkey Within the Context of International Law, Regulations and Practices

Abstract

Political finance bears considerable importance both in terms of democratic political order and in terms of ethics in politics. Based on the premise that relations between politics and money can lead to serious conflicts of interest in legislative processes, it must be born in mind that there is need for establishment of a contemporary system suitable for international law, regulations and practices on political finance. Therefore, this Article deals with the general concepts and practices on political finance. It examines international law, regulations and practices and identifies the problems related to the political finance in Turkey. Finally, the Article concludes with the recommendations for establishing a legal infrastructure of political finance in Turkey. 

Keywords
