Abstract

This article aims to bring the argument that the integration process of the Organization of Turkic States should progress with the strategy of priority sector for cooperation and institutionalization up for discussion in the context of neo-functionalism. Considering that sector-priority cooperation steps will pave the way for institutionalization and integration, the problem of the study is which sectors can be primarily a catalyst and how much. In this context, the potential contributions of the integration process to be followed with a focus on agriculture, defence and energy as today’s strategic sectors is tried to be revealed within the scope of cointegration econometric analysis by assessing with panel data method the relationship between the annual data of the member and observer countries covering the period of 1995-2019 in the relevant sectors and the growth data. As a result of this econometric modelling, it has been seen that the cooperation and integration steps to be followed in the field of agricultural incomes, defence expenditures and energy respectively in terms of the magnitude of the effects will contribute to both the development levels of the countries and the institutionalization and deepening of the Organization of Turkish States.

Türk Devletleri Teşkilatı: Bütünleşme Sürecine Nereden Başlamalı ve Ne Yapmalı?

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, neofonksiyonalizm bağlamında Türk Devletleri Teşkilatı’nın bütünleşme süreci için öncelikli sektör stratejisiyle ilerlemesi gerektiği argümanını tartışmaya açmaktır. Sektör öncelikli iş birliği adımlarının bütünleşme ve kurumsallaşmanın yolunu açacağı düşüncesinden hareketle çalışmanın problematiği hangi sektörlerin öncelikli olarak ne denli katalizör olabileceğidir. Bu kapsamda, günümüzün stratejik sektörleri tarım, savunma ve enerji odaklı izlenecek bütünleşme sürecinin potansiyel katkıları, üye ve gözlemci ülkelerin ilgili sektörlerdeki 1995-2019 dönemlerini kapsayan yıllık verileri ile büyüme verileri arasındaki ilişki panel veri yöntemiyle araştırılıp, eşbütünleşme ekonometrik analizi çerçevesinde ortaya konmaya çalışılmıştır. Uygulanan ekonometrik modelleme sonucu, etkilerin büyüklüğü açısından sırasıyla tarımsal gelirler, savunma harcamaları ve enerji alanında izlenecek iş birliği ve bütünleşme adımlarının hem ülkelerin kalkınma seviyelerine hem de Türk Devletleri Teşkilatı’nın kurumsallaşması ve derinleşmesine katkı sağlayacağı görülmüştür.
