Abstract
From May 27, 1996 to June 1, 1996, the University of Kansas School of Law and Marmara University, with the support of the Dedeman Foundation, co-sponsored an international conference in Istanbul and Ankara, Turkey. The formal title of the Conference was "The International Symposium on Comparative Law: Recent Developments in Public Affairs -- European, American, and Turkish Applications." The first half of the conference was held in the historic city of Istanbul, Turkey, where participants addressed the legal and fiscal aspects of environmental affairs, privitization and deregulation, and the use of informatics. The second half of the conference was conducted in Ankara, the capital of Turkey, and consisted of two simultaneous programs. One program focused on new trends in constitutional law, economic crimes and justice reform. The other program -- which was conducted at the Turkish Police Academy -- addressed the general topic of "Modern Methods of Criminal Investigation and Human Rights" while dealing with the specific topics of "Proactive Policing and Police Investigation," "Search and Seizure," and "Arrest and interrogation."
