Abstract

Ekonomi literatürü incelendiğinde son dönemde küresel eşitsizliğin düzeyi ve eğilimi konusuna önemli bir ilginin olduğu görülmektedir. Ekonomik eşitsizlik yaygındır ve kaçınılmaz bir olgudur. Eğer artan eşitsizlik doğru düzgün izlenmez ve nedenleri ortaya konulmazsa dünya ekonomisinde büyük sorunlar ortaya çıkarabilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı küresel çaptaki eşitsizliğe ait gelişmeleri ortaya koymaktır. Çalışmada ilk önce küreselleşme ve gelir dağılımındaki eşitsizlik ortaya koyulacak, daha sonra dünyada eşitsizliğin düzeyi 1980-2021 yılı verilerinden yararlanılarak açıklanmaya çalışılacak ve son bölümde COVID-19 pandemisinin eşitsizliğe etkisi tartışılacaktır.

Increasing Inequalities in the World Economy

Abstract

Until the 1980s, the concept of corruption has been generally studied in the fields of sociology, political science and criminal law. Later, As the link between corruption, which was seen as a government failure, and economic performance has become increasingly evident, economists working in the field of public finance have turned their attention to this field. It is important to investigate the concept of corruption and growth dynamics, especially for developing countries. In order to contribute this discussion, the paper examines the effect of corruption on growth. This relationship is investigated by fully modified least squares (FMOLS) method for a sample of 27 developing countries between 2002 and 2019 period. The findings of the study suggest that there is a negative and statistically significant relationship between growth and corruption.
