PREVENTION OF ILLEGAL TRAFFICKING AND TRANSFER OF CULTURAL PROPERTIES IN THE LIGHT OF UNITED NATIONS CONVENTIONS

Öz

Protection of cultural properties of which existence decreases every day is one of the most important issues causing global concern. Many important conventions have been drawn up as a result of the efforts led by United Nations in order to prevent the threats against these properties accepted as the common heritage of the mankind. The purpose of this study is to examine the criminal law provisions included in the leading ones of these internationally important conventions, to raise awareness and to contribute, even slightly, to the future works concerning this issue in our domestic law

BİRLEŞMİŞ MİLLETLER KONVANSİYONLARI IŞIĞINDA KÜLTÜR VARLIKLARININ YASADIŞI TİCARETİNİN VE NAKİLLERİNİN ÖNLENMESİ

Öz

Varlıkları her geçen gün hızla azalan kültür varlıklarının korunması küresel ölçekte endişeye neden olan önemli sorunlardan biridir. İnsanlığın ortak mirası olarak kabul edilen bu varlıklara yönelen tehlikelerin önlenmesi için Birleşmiş Milletler öncülüğünde yapılan çalışmalar sonucunda birçok önemli konvansiyon hazırlanmıştır. Çalışmamızın amacı, uluslararası alanda önem arz eden bu konvansiyonlardan öne çıkanların içeriğinde yer verilen ceza hukukuna ilişkin hükümlerin incelenmesi, farkındalık oluşturulması ve gelecekte bu alanda iç hukukumuzda yapılacak çalışmalara az da olsa katkı sağlayabilmektir
