Legal capacity in private international law
Development summary
Seçil Etlioğlu Erçetingöz examines the law applicable to the capacity of natural and legal persons, centred on Article 9 of the Turkish Code on Private International Law and Procedure No. 5718, through a systematic and comparative approach. The book was published by On Iki Levha Yayincilik in October 2026.
Its central questions include how far the system adopted in the Code is adequate for disputes over capacity, whether the connecting rules it adopts remain current, and whether the scope of Article 9 is confined to capacity alone or whether it should be linked to a wider field of personal status.
