DEVLET DIŞI SİLAHLI GRUPLARIN ULUSLARARASI İNSANCIL HUKUKA UYMASINA SEBEBİYET VEREN NEDENLER ÜZERİNDE BİR İNCELEME

Günümüz çatışmalarının değişen doğası neticesinde, uluslararası nitelikte olmayan silahlı çatışmalar yaygınlaşmış ve devlet dışı silahlı aktörler aktif rol alır hale gelmiştir. Bu gerekçeyle, bu gruplarla mücadele etmek ve hukuka uygun hareket etmelerini teşvik etmek elzem haline gelmiştir. Bu çalışma meşruiyet ve itibar elde etmek için uluslararası insancıl hukuka uyan devlet dışı silahlı aktörlerin motivasyonlarını incelemektedir. Çalışmada Kolombiya'da etkin olan FARC ve Sudan'da bulunan JEM örgütleri incelenerek, çocuk askerler konusunda hukuka nasıl saygı gösterdikleri belirlenmeye çalışılacaktır. Uluslararası insancıl hukuka olan güvenin korunması ve insan onuruna saygının arttırılması amacı hedef konarak vaka analizi neticesinde devlet dışı silahlı aktörleri uluslararası insancıl hukuka uymaya iten nedenler belirlenmeye çalışılacaktır.

AN EXAMINATION OF THE CAUSES OF NON-STATE ARMED GROUPS' COMPLIANCE WITH INTERNATIONAL HUMANITARIAN LAW

The changing nature of contemporary conflicts has resulted in the proliferation of non-international armed conflicts and the active involvement of non-state armed actors. For this reason, it has become essential to combat these groups and encourage them to act in accordance with the law. This study examines the motivations of non-state armed actors who comply with international humanitarian law in order to gain legitimacy and credibility. In this study, the FARC in Colombia and the JEM in Sudan will be examined and it will be tried to determine how they respect the law regarding child soldiers. With the aim of preserving trust in international humanitarian law and increasing respect for human dignity, the study will try to determine the reasons that push non-state armed actors to comply with international humanitarian law as a result of the case analysis.
