Abstract

Makroekonomi politikalarının odağındaki büyüme eksenli uygulamaların ortaya çıkardığı sorunlara yönelik ilgi son dönemlerde giderek artmıştır. Bu ilginin gerek ekonomik gerekse de siyasal, sosyal ve kültürel unsurlardan hareketle artmasının geri planında yatan dinamiklerin ortaya konulması küreselleşme olgusundan bağımsız bir biçimde ele alınmayı imkânsız hâle getirmektedir. Dolayısıyla, 20. yüzyılın sonlarından itibaren toplumun tüm katmanlarına yayılım gösteren küreselleşme ile birlikte çevresel dengenin değişimine vurgu yapan literatürün öne çıkmaya başladığı görülmektedir. Bu doğrultuda mevcut çalışmada, 1991-2014 dönemine ait verilerle panel ARDL yöntemiyle Türkiye, Azerbaycan, Kazakistan, Kırgızistan, Tacikistan, Türkmenistan ve Özbekistan’dan oluşan Türki Cumhuriyetlerde Çevresel Kuznets hipotezi ekonomik, politik ve sosyal küreselleşme göstergeleri dikkate alınarak test edilmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar, ekonomik büyümenin karbon emisyonu üzerindeki negatif yönlü etkisinin yaklaşık olarak kişi başı 2,830$ gelir düzeyinde ortaya çıktığını, sonrasında ise N tipi bir ilişkinin söz konusu olduğunu göstermektedir. Ayrıca analiz bulguları, politik ve sosyal küreselleşmenin karbon emisyonunu azalttığını, ekonomik küreselleşme ve enerji kullanımını ise arttırdığını ortaya koymaktadır.

GLOBALIZATION BASED APPROACH TO ENVIRONMENTAL KUZNETS HYPOTHESIS: THE CASE OF TURKIC REPUBLICS

Abstract

Recently, the interest in the problems caused by growth-oriented policy implications which are at the center of macroeconomic policies has increased gradually. Revealing the background dynamics of this interest that is increasing due to both economic and political, social and cultural factors, is impossible to discuss without taking the effects of the phenomenon of globalization. Therefore, together with the globalization that has permeated to all strata of society since the end of the 20th century, the literature which emphasises changing of environmental balance has become prominent. In this context, it he study, environmental Kuznets hypothesis is tested by taking economic, political and social globalization indicators into account for Turkic Republics that compose of Turkey, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, with panel ARDL methods for 1991-2014 period. The results show that the negative impact of the economic growth on carbon emission arises the per capita income level of nearly $2,830, and after that there is a N-shaped relationship between them. In addition, the findings reveal that political and social globalization reduce carbon emissions while it increases economic globalization and energy use.
