In the scope of the article 90 of the constitution, the place of international agreements in the domestic law and its effect on national sovereignty

Since the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, proclaimed by the General Assembly of the United Nations, human rights are very important question for civilized world. After world wars, civilised states which have a common heritage of political traditions, ideals, freedom and the rule of law tried to establish international machinery for the promotion and protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms. Rule of law, human rights and fundamental freedoms which are the foundation of justice and peace, are essential elements of the modern democratic states. As far as human rights concern there are internationally accepted rules, principles and practise Because of this universal nature, human rights are an international consept. For all this reasons problem of violations of human rights exceeded the national boundaries. Universal and effective recognition, common understanding and observance of the human rights made violations of human rights supranational matter. Human rights must be inserted in Constitutions. Purpose of this thesis is to reveal the necessity of this incorporation. Entities which use sovereign power on behalf of people and govern the state must be very sensitive about observing and protecting human rights. This is a must to maintain national and international peace and security.
