Introduction to Turkish Business Law

Due to the change of my student groups, I ceased to use and the materials after 2015. However, this year, following the advice of our senior colleague Prof. Dr. Halûk Kabaalioğlu who suggested both of us a several times to prepare a "cases and materials" form book for students, I and my colleague Dr. Mustafa Okan Yağcı, who has been teaching foundations of law and business law to non-law students in Pîrî Reis University decided to publish the materials together with the hypotheticals.

The materials were needed to be organized as a publishable text. Dr. Yağcı did this work for the most important seven chapters of the materials. He did not only the materials but also add new materials, explanatory diagrams etc. and substantially re-write Chapter IV, VI and VII, a hard work requiring a careful study of various branches of law enough for naming Dr. Yağcı as the co-author of the book.

For the sake of clarity I have to add that during the years since I started to use the materials I have noticed that some of the texts in my good old course materials had found their way to the Internet, been used and shared by students in "homework" websites and even used by reputable law firms posting information materials in their firm web sites. As the contents of the course materials were very general information for non-law students, I have never thought that there was anything wrong with those innocent borrowings by the studentscolleagues. The reason for mentioning this aspect is just to make it clear that if you come across similar sentences in some internet sources the very original text might have been registered by my personal computer with the date of the first creation.
