Abstract

This study aims to present the current state of the creative economy in Türkiye in light of global trends and digitalization. Creative industries, driven particularly by digital transformation, have become a significant force in the global economy, offering new employment opportunities, especially for the young workforce. From this perspective, creative industries hold substantial potential for the Turkish economy, particularly in generating high valueadded output and reducing youth unemployment. Building on this premise, the study first explores global trends that have transformed production and employment structures worldwide. It then examines how these trends have increasingly elevated the importance of the creative economy for nations. Finally, this study analyzes the current state of Türkiye's creative economy and provides recommendations on how these industries can contribute to the country’s economic development.

KÜRESEL EĞİLİMLER IŞIĞINDA TÜRKİYE'DE YARATICI EKONOMİ

Abstract

Bu çalışma, küresel eğilimlerin ve dijitalleşmenin sunduğu fırsatlar çerçevesinde Türkiye’de yaratıcı ekonominin mevcut durumunu değerlendirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Dijital dönüşümün etkisiyle yaratıcı endüstriler, küresel ekonomide önemli bir yer edinmiş ve genç iş gücü için yeni istihdam olanakları sunmaktadır. Bu açıdan bakıldığında, yüksek katma değer üretme ve genç işsizliğini azaltma hedeflerini benimseyen Türkiye ekonomisi için yaratıcı endüstriler güçlü bir potansiyele sahiptir. Bu çerçevede, çalışma kapsamında öncelikle küresel düzeyde üretim ve istihdam yapısını değiştiren küresel eğilimler ele alınmıştır. Ardından, bu eğilimlerin yaratıcı ekonomiyi ülkeler için giderek nasıl daha önemli bir konuma taşıdığı incelenmiştir. Son olarak, Türkiye’de yaratıcı ekonominin mevcut durumu analiz edilmiş ve bu endüstrilerin Türkiye ekonomisinin gelişimine katkı sağlayabilmesi için öneriler sunulmuştur.
