CEVAP:

Under Turkish Constitution (1982) human rights are articulated as “fundamental rights and freedoms”. It is stated in the preamble of the Constitution that every Turkish citizen has the right to the fundamental rights and freedoms laid down in the Constitution in accordance with “equality” and “social justice”, to lead an honorable life and to improve his/her material and spiritual well-being under the aegis of national culture, civilization, and the rule of law. Provisions governing human rights under Turkish Constitution give first a definition, than stipulate rules on restriction and prohibition of abuse of them.
