ULUSLARARASI REKABET GÜCÜNÜN ARTIRILMASINDA TEMEL DEVLET POLİTİKALARI

Abstract

Uluslararası rekabet gücü kavramı, bir ülkenin sahip olduğu firmaların uluslararası piyasalarda başarılı olma yeteneği ile birlikte devletin vatandaşlarının yaşam standartlarını ve yaşam kalitesini artırması anlamına gelmektedir. Bu bağlamda devletler ülkelerinin rekabet gücünü artırmak ve bu artışı sürdürülebilir bir hale getirmek için firma destekli ve piyasa ekonomisi tabanlı politikalar izlemelidir. Çalışmanın ilk kısmında rekabet gücü teorisi ve rekabet gücünü belirleyen faktörler ele alınmaktadır. Son kısmında ise uluslararası rekabet gücünün artırılmasında devletin izlemesi gereken roller açıklanmaktadır. Bir devletin temel varlık sebebi vatandaşlarının refah seviyesini ve yaşam kalitesini artırmak ve bu artışın sürdürülebilir olmasını sağlamaktır. Bu varlık sebebini gerçekleştirebilmenin yolu sürdürülebilir bir uluslararası rekabet gücü artışı yakalamaktır. Sürdürülebilir bir rekabet gücü artışı için devlet kamu kesiminin etkinliğini artırmaya ve makro ekonomik reformları oluşturulmasına ve sürdürülmesine yönelik olmak üzere iki temel politikayı gerçekleştirmelidir
