KUZNETS’İN TERS U EĞRİSİ BAĞLAMINDA TÜRKİYE’DE GELİR EŞİTSİZLİĞİ VE EKONOMİK BÜYÜME İLİŞKİSİ: 1986-2012

Year 2016, Volume: 2 Issue: 3, 93 - 102, 01.11.2016

Abstract

Kuznets, ters U hipotezi ile ekonomik büyümenin başlangıç aşamasında artan gelir eşitsizliğinin, büyümenin daha sonraki aşamalarında azalmakta olduğunu ileri sürerek günümüze kadar devam eden bir tartışma başlatmıştır. Bu çalışmada, Kuznets‟in ters U hipotezinin 1986-2012 dönemi için Türkiye ekonomisi özelinde geçerli olup olmadığı araştırılmıştır. ARDL yaklaşımıyla yapılan çalışmada elde edilen bulgulara göre, Türkiye için incelenen dönemde “ters U” ilişkisi yerine “U” ilişkisi olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Başka bir ifadeyle, ekonomik büyüme sürecinde gelir dağılımındaki eşitsizlik kişi başına gelir arttıkça önce düzelmiş ve sonra ise bozulma göstermiştir.

Kuznets’in Ters U Eğrisi Bağlamında Türkiye’de Gelir Eşitsizliği ve Ekonomik Büyüme İlişkisi: 1986-2012

Abstract

Kuznets started a long-standing discussion up to now by suggesting his inverted-U hypothesis, which implies that income equality increases in the initial economic growth periods but it decreases afterwards. Kuznets‟s inverted-U hypothesis is investigated in the case of Turkey in the period from 1986 to 2012 in this study. Due to the results of this study employing ARDL approach, there emerges a „U‟ relationship. In other words income inequality decreases in the initial economic growth periods and increases afterwards, that is to say while income per capita increases; inequality increases in the beginning but decreases later on.
