İŞKENCENİN ÖNLENMESİ BAĞLAMINDA HUKUKUN ÜSTÜNLÜĞÜ VE AHLAK İLİŞKİSİ

Öz

Lon L. Fuller'a göre hukuk, ancak insanları kendi düzenine tabi kılabilecek durumdaysa hukuk olabilir. Bunu başarabilmek için hukuk, kişileri genel kurallar aracılığıyla yönetmeli ve bu kurallar ilan edilmiş, anlaşılabilir, ileriye dönük, birbiriyle uyumlu, uygulanabilir, istikrarlı olmalı ve resmi işlemler ile ilan edilen kurallar arasında bir örtüşme bulunmalıdır. Hukukun üstünlüğünün prensipleri olarak kabul edilen bu sekiz ilke bir düzeni hukuk sistemine dönüştürmek için olmazsa olmazdır. Hukukun üstünlüğü, Fuller'ın görüşünde, kişileri haysiyet sahibi failler olarak değerlendirdiğinden ve keyfi yönetimlerin ahlaki talepleri ihlal etmeye yönelik uygulamalarını sınırlayabileceğinden ahlaki bir değer taşır. Hukuki pozitivistler ise bu prensiplerle etik arasında zorunlu bir ilişki kurulamayacağını ileri sürerek hukukun üstünlüğünü araçsal bir konuma indirgerler. Bu çalışmada ilk olarak Fuller'ın prosedürel doğal hukuk teorisiyle pozitivistlerin karşı argümanları değerlendirilmekte, daha sonra Bush yönetiminin soruşturmalarda işkence yöntemleri kullanabilmesinin ancak Fuller'ın ortaya koyduğu prensiplerin ihlali ile mümkün olduğu ortaya konarak hukukun üstünlüğünün işkencenin önlenmesi bağlamında ahlaki değeri haiz olduğu savunulmaktadır
