Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amaçları, Türkiye’de iller bazında 2000 – 2013 döneminde yabancı turist gelişini belirleyen faktörlerin ampirik olarak analiz edilmesi ve elde edilen bulgular doğrultusunda, turist sayısını arttırmaya yönelik politika önerilerinin geliştirilmesidir. Bu bağlamda çalışmanın literatüre katkıları iki yönlüdür. Birincisi, ampirik analiz kapsamında Türkiye’de iller bazında yabancı turist gelişinin belirleyicileri en yeni veriler kullanılarak tespit edilmeye çalışılmaktadır. İkincisi, çalışma kapsamında, bu alandaki en ayrıntılı ampirik analize yer verilmektedir. Tüm bunlar doğrultusunda ayrıntılı bir giriş bölümünün ardından çalışmada, turizm sektörü ve ekonomik etkileri açıklanmaktadır. Takip eden bölümde panel veri analizi ve mekansal ekonometrik yöntemler açıklanmakta ve ardından ampirik literatüre yer verilmektedir. Veri seti, değişkenler ve ekonometrik modelin açıklandığı bir sonraki bölümün sonrasında ise, bulguların özetlendiği ve politika önerilerinin geliştirildiği sonuç kısmına yer verilmektedir

The Determinants of Foreign Tourist Inflows to Turkish Cities

Abstract

The main purposes of this study are; analyzing empirically the determinants of foreign tourist arrivals in Turkish cities during 2000 – 2013 period and developing some policy implications by following those empirical results. In this context, the contributions of this study are twofold. Firstly, the most recent data are used for the empirical analysis. Secondly, to the best of our knowledge, the most comprehensive spatial econometric analysis is conducted in this research area. Consequently, in this study, after a brief introduction, tourism sector and its economic impacts are described in detail. Then panel data analysis and spatial econometric methods are explained. After the empirical literature section, data set, variables and econometric model used in the empirical analysis are defined. And lastly, a brief conclusion in that empirical evidences are summarized and some policy implications are developed, is given.
