Abstract

Globalization
refers to increasing competition with lowering border cost and higher degree of
liberalization. For that reason the economic production of state is not
accepted and if state intervenes to the economy it will result with imperfect
competition. When globalization has gain importance around the world in 1980’s,
privatization has become the most effective instrument to maintain an important
volume of privatization of SOE’s after 1990’s. One of the most important
criticisms on SOE’s is the inefficiency and the waste of scarce economic
resources. According to the neoliberal policies that supports the inefficiency
of SMO’s, privatization will decrease the size of state production and increase
the efficiency which will result with higher competitiveness. The impact of
globalization in the last 40 years will be analyzed with comparison of data
between developed and developing countries.

Küreselleşmenin KİT’lerin Ekonomideki Payına Etkisi

Abstract

Küreselleşme, dünyada
sınır maliyetlerinin azalması  ve
serbestleşmenin ekonomiye hakim olmasıyla rekabetin artmasını ifade etmektedir.
Bu nedenle devletin ekonomik faaliyette bulunması küreselleşmenin doğasına
uygun olmayacak ve haksız rekabet yaratacaktır. Küreselleşmenin önem kazandığı
1980’li yıllar aynı zamanda özelleştirmenin öne çıktığı bir dönemin de
başlangıcı olmuştur. Özelleştirme küreselleşmenin en önemli enstrümanlarından
biri olarak özellikle 1990’lı yıllarda dünya genelinde Kamu İktisadi
Teşebbüslerinin önemli ölçüde özele devredilmesini sağlamıştır.  KİT’lere yapılan en önemli eleştiri etkinliği
sağlayamayarak kıt kaynakların israf edilmesi olarak ifade edilmektedir. Bu
anlayışı benimseyen neoliberal politikalar doğrultusunda KİT’ler
özelleştirildikçe devletin ekonomideki payı veya üretimdeki payı da giderek
azalacak ve etkinlik sağlanarak rekabette avantaj yakalanacaktı. Çalışma, küreselleşmenin
hakim olduğu yaklaşık 40 yılda özelleştirmelerle KİT’lerin üretimdeki payı
açısından gelinen durumu gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan ülkeler açısından değerlendirmektedir.
