The Practise of Capability Approach in Child Marriages: The Case of Turkey
Öz
Restriction of freedoms emerges as an important human development problem in Turkey as well as in the rest of the world. This problem also hinders people’s access to other capabilities, particularly if basic 'capabilities' such as education, health and income, which are important for the development of girls as individuals, cannot be achieved and lead to the ineffective use of developmental inputs by girls. From this point of view, in this study, the problem of child marriage is discussed in the context of talent approach due to the importance of the given situation both in Turkey and the world. Starting from the case of child marriage, the causes and consequences of this problem are boldly emphasized. In addition, within the framework of Nussbaum's capability approach, it is pointed out that in traditionally patriarchal societies, women's capacity was seen as less valuable and limited compared to men. This situation, therefore, might cause gender inequality. The capability approach provides a distinctive framework suggesting that justice in a society should be assessed based on people’s ability to achieve what they have reason to value. Based on perspective, it proposes that the analysing an individuals’ welfare should not be limited to what he or she has as a resource, but what she or he can do and be with this resource since resources are only instruments to achieve ends, or valuable beings and doings. In this study, gender inequality was tried to be highlighted through the interviews which have been done with child brides in the context of the capability approach. Finally, it is emphasized how the capability approach can be applied to the problem of child marriages and suggestions are presented.
