Zusammenfassung:Provides a socio-legal analysis of cultural norms and the right to conscientious objection in TurkeyDiscusses the international instruments which recognise the right to conscientious objectionAnalyses the compatibility of Turkish domestic law with international lawExamines the socio-cultural elements behind the non-recognition of the right to conscientious objection in TurkeyForges a link between real life and academiaProvides a socio-legal analysis of the right to conscientious objectionThis book provides a socio-legal perspective to critical military studies by asking socio-legal questions about military conscription in Turkey: How do the international and domestic laws approach the conflict between the law and conscience? Why does Turkey insist on the non-recognition of the right to conscientious objection? How are those pursuing their conscience affected by such non-recognition? These questions are important as the law is shaped by the socio-cultural structures in which it operates, and any attempt to create a social change also necessitates understanding and challenging the legal framework. In this light, the book argues that one cannot fully understand and, as a result, resist the militarisation of society without understanding the relationship between the law and social norms
