IGUL Artificial Intelligence Law Research Group Article Writing Initiative

Dear IGUL Members,

The BAU IGUL Directorate Artificial Intelligence Law Research Group was established in February 2020 and has so far held various events and 21 article reading meetings. All events held to date can be watched on the Feridun Yenisey Law Specialization Seminars YouTube channel.

In order both to make these presentations permanent and to enable other work on artificial intelligence law, it has been decided to publish short articles not exceeding 15 pages.

Articles sent to us will first be published online on our website, and articles reviewed by the scientific committee and deemed suitable for publication will later be printed as a book.

Scientific studies related to artificial intelligence law attract more international interest when presented in English. You can therefore send your studies, prepared in English or Turkish, by 31.12.2020 toigul@law.bau.edu.tr.

Scientific studies must therefore be prepared according to the writing rules below; the sources used must be cited in the footnotes and bibliography, care must be taken not to quote directly from other authors' works, and if verbatim quotation is necessary, it must be placed in quotation marks with the source indicated in a footnote. Articles that do not comply with these rules will not be considered.
