Abstract (EN)

This study includes four parts except for introduction and final parts. The development progress of trade union organizations in Europe has been studied in the first part and same as in Turkey in the second part. The definition of globalism and new world balances will be emphasized in the third part while the sources that weaken the trade union rights at the end. The history of mankind, from relation in SlaveMaster to EmployeePatron fundamentally without destroying one?s authority upon the otherhas been carried to current life with some changes at significant points after cruel struggles longed for centuries. Human life has been deeply affected by the life style of feudal system, smallscale handcraft and home products, especially the invention of steam engine and largescale productions right after mechanization and the Industrial Revolution representing the entry of bulk production for which many people worked in factories. Colonizing the discovered places after huge geographical discoveries, experiencing the France Revolution and its impacts and then developing big inventions, West European countries with intense capital accumulation were in the lead this period, after that, completing industry period, Canada, USA, Japan etc. caused massive labor bodies. After the birth of workers class, while the conception movement named Marxism led by Karl Marx counting worker and labor sacred profoundly influenced the whole world, it prepared the base of the Eastern Bloc where super powerfully USSR was in the lead and changed the stream of human history. In view of worldwide effect of workers class? aiming to have a command of rule, while leaving aside the Capitalism which had to discipline its brutality by itself with the 272 principle of the Social State, a new era has started. In that period, we observe that legalizing some activities of the workers for improving work and life conditions by workers? uniting, being organized which was legitimate provided that they had to comply with the regulations, that in the length of time as becoming the essential condition of social peace and justice trade unionism and labor union organizations and rights became prevalent. In our country, however, including the commencement years of the Republic Era, we don?t perceive any major labor activities or similar legal and legitimate situation. Not enough forbidding mentality of 1982 Constitution cut back labor union rights and freedom developed especially by 1961 Constitution and its independence environment, Globalism process, strongly affected the whole world in last 20 years, has also been wearing, restraining and destroying the labor union rights in our country just like in the world. The base of trade unionism that is the product of collective life rendered unstable either by reducing the number of workers in public sector by privatizations or applying workathome productions instead of factory productions. Spreading the application of employment contracts excluding labor unions and leaving labor rights up to the employers? initiative, the longtime benefits of the flexible employment contracts and its worsening work conditions against workers and likewise situations, conceiving the labor rights as cost factor by greedy capitalists who only consider more profit which is the reflection of covetousness of human beings, breaking up the legend of the social state as did same to the social rights and perceiving these rights (labor rights, social rights) as cost element aggravated both each country? s unfair distribution of income inside the country and unfairness at the global scale between the countries. Declaration of Market Economy?s sovereignty throughout the world after the collapse of the Soviet Union and the Earth?s being almost one pole caused all developments. Even the scientific authorities don?t argue the impossibility of attempt to launch that above mentioned is the end of the history. Capitalist attacks at the global scale made from upside toward down can be beaten by globalism involving actions and endeavors at the global scale from down to up. In 273 this context, the sufferer shall begin and continue this effect of Marxism caused the social state by disciplining the vicious Capitalism, stated globalism from down to up by a new worldwide social agreement in current life which solves all the globaleffectedproblems related to either against to economical unfairness at the global scale or the problems from social rights, trade union rights to environment problems. At the same time, in the name of making the world we live in livable, strong ones would control the sufferers to prove their power, for this purpose the mankind has been rapidly dragged to a globalscale process which has very tense struggles and conflicts. That urges workers to be smartly organized and very dynamic not only at local scale but also global scale. Both our world and our country can only survive and stand if it can develop a wellorganized and smart defense reflex against capitalist attacks which are the uniquely turbulent and greedy.
