Basın özgürlüğünün sağlanmasıyla, bir ülkede ekonominin ve ekonomi ile ilişkili diğer boyutların gelişimi sağlanabilmektedir. Özellikle büyük ekonomilerin basın özgürlüğü performansı küresel ekonomiyi etkilediğinden dolayı büyük ekonomilerin basın özgürlüğü performanslarının analizi büyük önem arz etmektedir. Bu kapsamda araştırmada, G7 grubu ülkelerin basın özgürlüğü performansları en son ve güncel olan Dünya Basın Özgürlüğü Endeksi (World Press Freedom Index-WPFI) OPA ve SECA çok kriterli karar verme (ÇKKV) yöntemleri ile ölçülmüştür. Bulgulara göre, ilk olarak her iki yönteme göre basın özgürlüğü kriterlerinin ağırlık katsayıları ölçülmüş ve en önemli basın özgürlüğü kriterinin OPA yöntemine göre ‘’yasal bağlam’’, SECA yöntemine göre ise ‘’güvenlik bağlamı’’ olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Dolayısıyla bu bulgulara göre, G7 grubu ülkelerinin küresel ekonomiye olan katkılarını artırmaları için ‘’yasal bağlam’’ ve ‘’güvenlik bağlamı’’ kriterlerinin gelişimini sağlayacak stratejiler ve faaliyetler yapması gerektiği sonucuna erişilmiştir. İkinci olarak ülkelerin basın özgürlüğü performansları OPA yöntemine göre Japonya, ABD, İtalya, Fransa, İngiltere, Almanya ve Kanada, SECA yöntemine göre ise Kanada, Almanya, İngiltere, Fransa, İtalya, ABD ve Japonya olarak sıralanmıştır. Üçüncü olarak yöntem açısından tespit edilen nicel bulgulara istinaden yöntemler ayırım uzaklığı ve korelâsyon analizleri ile değerlendirilmiştir. Buna göre, OPA ve SECA yöntemlerinin birbirlerinden çok farklı teknikler olduğu ve ülkelerin WPFI kapsamında basın özgürlüğü performanslarının OPA yöntemine kıyasla SECA yöntemi ile açıklanabileceği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

EVALUATION OF THE PRESS FREEDOM PERFORMANCE OF G7 COUNTRIES: AN APPLICATION OF THE OPA AND SECA METHODS

Öz

Freedom of the press can promote the development of a country's economy and other dimensions related to the economy. Since the freedom of the press performance of large economies affects the global economy, it is important to analyze the freedom of the press performance of large economie In this context, the research measured the press freedom performance of G7 group countries using the latest and most up-to-date World Press Freedom Index (WPFI) through the OPA and SECA multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods.According to the findings, first, the weight coefficients of the freedom of the press criteria were measured according to both methods and the most important freedom of the press criterion was found to be "legislative context" according to the OPA method and "security context" according to the SECA method. Therefore, it is concluded that G7 countries need to develop strategies and activities to promote the development of the "legislative context" and "security context" criteria in order to increase their contribution to the global economy. Secondly, the freedom of the press performance of the countries was ranked as Japan, USA, Italy, France, UK, Germany and Canada according to the OPA method, and as Canada, Germany, UK, France, Italy, USA and Japan according to the SECA method. In the third step, the methods were evaluated by discrimination distance and correlation analysis based on the quantitative findings identified in terms of method. According to this, it has been concluded academically that the OPA and SECA methods are quite distinct techniques, and a comparison of countries' press freedom performance within the scope of WPFI can be explained by the SECA method rather than the OPA method.
