Arbitrability in the resolution of disputes arising from the rights and obligations of joint stock partnership shareholders

In today's world, the acceleration of international trade has led to the emergence of many disputes. The increase in disputes, especially of an international nature, has led the parties to prefer alternative resolution mechanisms instead of state courts. However, this situation has raised the question of whether arbitration can be used to resolve disputes regarding company law. The aim of this study is to examine the arbitrability of disputes regarding joint stock companies, especially those arising from the rights and obligations of shareholders, within the framework of the opinions in the doctrine and the decisions of the Supreme Court. Our thesis consists of two main headings.
