DEMOKRASİ, EKONOMİK ÖZGÜRLÜK VE EKONOMİK BÜYÜME ARASINDAKİ İLİŞKİLERİN MEKÂNSAL ANALİZİ: AVRUPA ÜLKELERİ ÜZERİNE BİR İNCELEME

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, mekansal veri ve teknikleri kullanarak Avrupa ülkeleri için demokrasi, ekonomik özgürlük ve ekonomik büyüme arasındaki ilişkileri incelemektir. Bu amaçla, Quartile haritalar, Moran’s Scatterplots ve LISA istatistiği kullanılmaktadır. Çalışmada 1995-2009 yılları arasındaki kişi başına gayri safi yurtiçi hâsıla, 2006-2008 yılları için demokrasi indeksi ve 1995-2009 yılları için ekonomik özgürlük indeksinin mekansal dağılımı incelenmektedir. Elde edilen bulgular, kişi başına gayri safi yurtiçi hasıla, demokrasi ve ekonomik özgürlükler arasında pozitif bir ilişki olduğunu göstermektedir. Avrupa’nın çekirdeğini oluşturan ülkelerin başta Almanya
ve Fransa olmak üzere Belçika, Danimarka ve Hollanda olduğu
belirlenmiştir. Bu ülkelerin (özellikle Almanya ve Fransa) hem ekonomik
kalkınma düzeyi hem de ekonomik büyüklük ve nüfus olarak Avrupa’nın geri
kalanı için itici güç oldukları görülmüştür.
