ROBİN HAHNEL'İN BAKIŞ AÇISINDAN FAYDA MALİYET ANALİZİ

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, fayda maliyet analizi yaklaşımını Robin Hahnel’in bakış açısından irdelemektir. İlgili kapsamda öncelikle fayda maliyet analizi yaklaşımının tarihçesi ve gelişimi araştırılmakta; daha sonra analize getirilen eleştiriler aktarılmaktadır. Son tahlilde, Hahnel’in analize getirdiği yenilikçi bakış açısı paylaşılmaktadır. Çalışma, fayda maliyet analizinin sadece ekonomik değil, aynı zamanda ekolojik ve sosyal boyutları da içerecek şekilde genişletilmesi gerektiğini vurgulamaktadır. Hahnel’in eleştirileri, fayda maliyet analizinin doğal çevrenin nicel değerlendirilmesine odaklanarak, çevrenin korunmasını sadece ekonomik bir çerçevede ele almanın yetersiz kaldığını göstermektedir. Sonuç olarak, fayda maliyet analizinin, çevre politikalarının daha etkin uygulanabilmesi için ekonomik, ekolojik ve sosyal değerleri entegre edecek şekilde genişletilmesinin zorunlu olduğu sonucuna varılmaktadır. Bu yaklaşım, çevresel ve sosyal boyutların yeterince dikkate alınmamasına yol açan mevcut uygulamaların üstesinden gelmeyi amaçlamaktadır.

Ethical Statement

Etik kurul kararı gerektirmemektedir.

COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS FROM ROBIN HAHNEL’S PERSPECTIVE

Year 2024, Issue: 69, 17 - 26, 30.12.2024
https://doi.org/10.18070/erciyesiibd.1480433

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the cost-benefit analysis approach from the perspective of Robin Hahnel. Initially, the history and development of the cost-benefit analysis approach are explored; subsequently, the criticisms brought to the analysis are presented. Ultimately, R. Hahnel’s innovative perspective on the analysis is shared. The study emphasizes that cost-benefit analysis should not only incorporate economic dimensions but also ecological and social aspects. Hahnel’s critiques illustrate that focusing cost-benefit analysis solely on the quantitative evaluation of the natural environment, and addressing environmental protection only within an economic framework, is insufficient. Consequently, it is concluded that cost-benefit analysis must be expanded to integrate economic, ecological, and social values to more effectively implement environmental policies. This approach aims to overcome current practices that fail to adequately consider environmental and social dimensions.
