Abstract
With the modern governmental understanding, the continuous rise in government expenditure has brought along the discussions of the optimal magnitude (size) of public sector and how these purchases should be financed. Besides, it has been seen that the politic authorities have used these expenditures as a politic instrument for eliminating economic fluctuations, and ensuring efficient use of resources and economic growth. Not only the amount of government expenditure problem but also the effects of government expenditure on the economic growth are discussed in many working paper. In this paper I test the relation between government expenditure and economic growth empirically using 1998:1-2009:3 quarterly data and conclude that there is no causality between GDP and Government Expenditure.
Abstract
Modern devlet anlayy?y ile birlikte kamu harcamalaryndaki sürekli arty?, kamu kesiminin optimal büyüklü?ünü ve bu harcamalaryn nasyl finanse edilmesi gerekti?i tarty?malaryny da beraberinde getirmi?tir. Di?er yandan siyasi otoritelerin, ekonomideki dalgalanmalary gidermek, kaynaklaryn etkin kullanymyny ve ekonomik büyümeyi sa?lamak için bu harcamalary bir politika aracy olarak kullandyklary gözlenmektedir. Gerek kamu harcamalarynyn büyüklü?ü sorunu, gerekse bu harcamalaryn ekonomik büyüme üzerindeki etkileri birçok çaly?manyn konusunu olu?turmaktadyr. Bu çaly?mada Türkiye'de kamu harcamalary ile ekonomik büyüme arasyndaki ili?ki, 1998:1-2009:3 dönemini kapsayan üçer aylyk veriler kullanylarak ampirik olarak test edilmi?tir. Çaly?ma sonucunda elde edilen bulgulara göre, GSYYH(Gayrisafi Yurtiçi Hasyla) ile kamu harcamalaryny arasynda her hangi bir nedensellik ili?kisine rastlanmamy?tyr.
