This study examines compensation for inter-state damages in the context of the law on international responsibility. In this context, this study examines only inter-state damages from all harmful consequences caused by the internationally wrongful act of the State. First of all, the concept of reparation, state’s obligation to reparation and method of reparation in the international responsibility law regime will be examined. Then, the obligation to reparation and its legal consequences will be expressed. Types of damage falling within the scope of the obligation to reparation will be explained. This determination directly affects the calculation of compensation, the amount of it and even the form of it. In addition, determining the feature and amount of the damage to be repaired with compensation is the preliminary process of the calculation of compensation. Besides, the unique form of compensation in international law and the principles applied in the calculation of compensation will be specified and examined. It should be noted that the scope of this study is the inter-state damages arising from the internationally wrongful act of the states. Therefore, the reparation of damages to international organizations and natural/legal persons; also, damages resulting from certain activities not prohibited by international law are out of the scope of this study.

ULUSLARARASI SORUMLULUK HUKUKUNDA DEVLETLERARASI ZARARLARA YÖNELİK TAZMİNATIN BELİRLENMESİ

Öz

Bu çalışma uluslararası sorumluluk esasları çerçevesinde onarım yöntemlerinden biri olan tazminatın devletlerarası zararlar açısından incelemesini yapmaktadır. Çalışma bu bağlamda devletlerin uluslararası haksız fiilleri neticesinde meydana gelen zararlardan yalnızca devletlerin maruz kaldığı zararlar kapsamında bir incelemedir. Bu kapsamda, öncelikle uluslararası sorumluluk hukuku rejiminde zararın onarımı, onarım yükümlülüğü ve onarım yöntemleri incelenmiştir. Onarım yükümlülüğünün mahiyeti, kapsamı ve sonuçlarından bahsedildikten sonra tazminata tabi zararın kapsamı ve zarar türleri belirtilmiştir. Anılan hususlar, tazminatın hesaplanmasını, tazminat miktarını ve hatta tazminatın şeklini doğrudan etkilemektedir. Ayrıca tazminat ile onarılacak zararın mahiyetinin ve miktarının belirlenmesi tazminatın hesaplanması aşamasının ön sürecidir. Bunun devamında eldeki çalışmada tazminatın uluslararası hukuka özgü niteliği ve tazminat miktarının hesaplanmasında başvurulan ilke ve esaslar belirtilip incelenmiştir. Vurgulamak gerekir ki bu çalışmanın kapsamına devletlerin uluslararası haksız fiillerinden kaynaklanan ve yalnızca başka devlet ve devletlere yönelik zararlar girmektedir. Dolayısıyla uluslararası örgütlere, gerçek veya hükmî şahıslara yönelik zararlar ile uluslararası hukuka uygun birtakım faaliyetlerden kaynaklanan zararların onarılması bu incelemenin kapsamı dışındadır.
