Abstract:

 This article aims to critically analyze the legal and democratic framework of disaster response within the context of the Republic of Türkiye Presidential Decrees PDs issued during the state of emergency SOE declared following the earthquakes in Kahramanmaras on February 6th. This research analyzed the PDs issued during the SOE in ten provinces using content analysis techniques. The published PDs have been analyzed by dividing them into three groups: operational, organizational, and psychological response, and thus a conceptual approach to disaster response management has been put forward. It is concluded that actively pursuing legal remedies during disaster response enhances the effectiveness of interventions and provides a valid, democratic, and legal basis for processes, thereby optimizing disaster response and crisis management. As such, the article pointed out that the proactive policy in disaster intervention strategy during the Kahramanmaras Earthquakes offered valuable lessons for handling future disasters.

 Bu makale, 6 Şubatta Kahramanmaraşta meydana gelen depremlerin ardından ilan edilen olağanüstü hal OHAL döneminde çıkarılan Cumhurbaşkanlığı Kararnameleri CBK bağlamında afet müdahalesinin yasal ve demokratik çerçevesini eleştirel bir şekilde analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu araştırma, içerik analizi tekniği kullanarak on ilde OHAL sırasında çıkarılan CBKları analiz etmiştir. Yayımlanan CBKlar operasyonel, organizasyonel ve psikolojik müdahale olmak üzere üç gruba ayrılarak analiz edilmiş ve böylece afet müdahale yönetimine ilişkin kavramsal bir yaklaşım ortaya konmuştur.Afete müdahale sırasında aktif olarak yasal yollara başvurmanın, müdahalelerin etkinliğini arttırdığı ve süreçler için geçerli, demokratik ve yasal bir temel oluşturduğu, dolayısıyla afete müdahaleyi ve kriz yönetimini iyileştirdiği sonucuna varılmıştır.Bu bağlamda,makale Kahramanmaraş Depremleri sırasında afet müdahale stratejisindeki proaktif politikanın gelecekteki afetlerin ele alınmasında değerli dersler sunduğuna işaret etmiştir.
