The Case of Free Movement for Workers Between Turkey and the European Union

Abstract

Turkey has be en an associate member of the EV sinee i963. The
Ankara Agreement of 19631 regulates cconomie, social and financial mallers.
In the preamble, it is stated that the agreement seeks to bring about 'ever
closer bonds between the Turkish pcople and the pcople brought together in
the European Economic Community'. It was believed that social and cultural
integration between their people could best be achieved through the
movement of peoplcs across national boundaries. This, the parties sought to
achieve through the gradual introduction of 'freedom of movement for
workers, professionals and entrepreneurs' (Articles 12 to 14 of the Ankara
Agreement) Since the international mavement of labour involves far greater
number of individuals, it is this aspect of social integration whieh deserves
particular attention.
