Course Objectives: | Labor Law recognizes the employee as the weaker party in a contract, which is why it includes various provisions and legal mechanisms to offer protection. While these regulations predominantly aim to eliminate the imbalance between the contracting parties, they also strive to maintain a delicate balance by considering the interests of both sides. The aim of this course is to deepen the understanding of students who are already practicing law, enhancing their research skills and fostering analytical thinking through an interactive discussion environment. In this context, students will be exposed to a selection of current debates in labor law, exploring both theoretical and practical perspectives. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; Students, who successfully complete the course, will be able to: - Understand and discuss the current case law of the Court of Cassation regarding labor law. - Analyze the differing opinions in legal doctrine on relevant issues. - Discuss the practical challenges arising from the legal provisions that aim to balance conflicting interests. - Formulate their own perspectives on the specific issues covered in the course. - Justify and provide original scientific evaluations of the issues discussed. |
The legal institutions and conflicts will be thoroughly explained and discussed through the topics of research papers prepared and presented by students on a weekly basis. Before the topics are addressed in class, all students should review the relevant student’s paper and come prepared for the discussions. Therefore, active participation is essential in this course. The research papers presented during the course will first be critiqued by fellow students, followed by feedback from the rapporteur and, finally, the instructor. This will be followed by both theoretical and practical discussions on the topic. It is also the students’ responsibility to stay updated with any current announcements. |
