DİJİTALLEŞME ÇAĞINDA SUÇ VE CEZA EKONOMİSİ

Öz

Suç ve ceza ekonomisi, suç olgusunu ekonomik bir perspektiften analiz ederek, suçla mücadelede etkili politikalar geliştirmeyi amaçlar. Bu alan, bireylerin suç işleme kararlarını anlamak, suçun toplum üzerindeki etkilerini değerlendirmek ve suçla mücadelede uygulanan politikaların etkinliğini artırmak için önemli bir çerçeve sunar. Dijitalleşme, suç ve ceza ekonomisi üzerinde derin ve kapsamlı etkiler yaratmaktadır. Bu dönüşüm, suç türlerinin evrimleşmesine ve mevcut suçların işlenme biçimlerinin önemli ölçüde değişmesine yol açmaktadır. Özellikle siber suçlar, dijital dolandırıcılık, kimlik hırsızlığı ve kripto paralar aracılığıyla gerçekleştirilen kara para aklama gibi suçlar, dijital teknolojilerin hızlı yayılmasıyla artış göstermektedir. Dijital platformlar, suçların coğrafi sınırlamalarını ortadan kaldırarak küresel ölçekte bir tehdit oluşturmaktadır; bununla birlikte, suç organizasyonları dijital ortamda daha sofistike ve gizli operasyonlar gerçekleştirebilmektedir. Bu dönüşüm, suç ve ceza ekonomisini temelden yeniden şekillendirmektedir. Dijital suçlar, geleneksel suçlara göre daha karmaşık ve sofistike hale gelmiş olup, mevcut hukuki düzenlemeler bu yeni suç türlerine karşı yetersiz kalmaktadır. Bu nedenle, dijitalleşme çağında suç ve ceza ekonomisi, disiplinler arası bir yaklaşımla ele alınmalı ve sürekli olarak yenilenmelidir.

ECONOMICS OF CRIME AND PUNISHMENT IN THE AGE OF DIGITALIZATION

Öz

The economics of crime and punishment aims to develop effective policies to combat crime by analyzing the crime phenomenon from an economic perspective. This field provides an important framework for understanding individuals' decisions to commit crimes, assessing the effects of crime on society and improving the effectiveness of policies implemented to combat crime. Digitalization is having profound and far-reaching effects on crime and the criminal economy. This transformation is leading to the evolution of crime types and a significant change in the way existing crimes are committed. In particular, crimes such as cybercrime, digital fraud, identity theft and money laundering through cryptocurrencies are on the rise due to the rapid spread of digital technologies. Digital platforms pose a threat on a global scale by eliminating the geographical limitations of crimes; however, criminal organizations are able to conduct more sophisticated and covert operations in the digital environment. This transformation is fundamentally reshaping the economics of crime and punishment. Digital crimes have become more complex and sophisticated than traditional crimes, and existing legal regulations are insufficient against these new types of crimes. Therefore, the economics of crime and punishment in the age of digitalization should be addressed with an interdisciplinary approach and constantly renewed.
