Özet: In armed conflicts in different parts of the world, it is a common practice for women to be abducted and forced to live in marriage without their consent. The Appeals Chamber of the Special Court for Sierra Leone, in its decision in 2008, recognized that forced marriages that took place in the country during the civil war constitute other inhuman acts under crimes against humanity. The decision in question is seen as the emergence of forced marriages as a separate crime in international criminal law. The decision brought with it criticism that forced marriages constitute crime of sexual slavery and that there is no need for a new crime as forced marriage in international criminal law. While the discussions on the crime of forced marriage continued, the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia and the International Criminal Court confirmed the existence of the crime of forced marriage and revealed the definition and elements of the crime. In this study, the emergence of the crime of forced marriage in international criminal law, its development with court decisions, its elements and discussions about the crime are examined.
