ÇEVRESEL SÜRDÜRÜLEBİLİRLİK VE YOZLAŞMA İLİŞKİSİ: BİR KESİT VERİ ANALİZİ

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, 43 ülke verisinin yardımıyla, yozlaşma ile çevresel sürdürülebilirlik arasındaki ilişkiyi karşılaştırmalı olarak analiz etmektir. EKK yöntemiyle yapılan tahminlemeye göre yozlaşma ile çevresel sürdürülebilirlik arasında negatif yönlü ve anlamlı bir ilişki vardır. Araştırmada ayrıca Çevresel Kuznets Eğrisinin geçerli olup olmadığı da sınanmıştır. Buna göre, gelir ile çevresel sürdürülebilirlik arasındaki ters U şeklinde ilişki, yozlaşma değişkeni modele dahil edildiğinde anlamlılığını yitirmektedir

Keywords

• Yozlaşma, çevresel sürdürülebilirlik, gelir, sosyo-kültürel farklılıklar, eğitim
