Recently, climate change, natural disasters, resource depletion, and environmental problems have drawn attention to the circular economy. Increasing awareness has led businesses to seek ways to use resources economically, to produce in a way that causes less harm to the environment, and to consider the health of society in their decisions. In this process, understanding the obstacles in front of the circular economy is an important issue in order to overcome these obstacles and spread the understanding of sustainability. The aim of this study is to list the barriers in front of the circular economy in the manufacturing industry based on a literature review, reveal the hierarchical structure of the relations between these barriers, and classify them according to their influence. In the first stage, a comprehensive literature review was conducted to identify the barriers to the circular economy, and then 9 barriers to be used in the research were determined by taking expert opinions. Relationships among barriers were examined by interpretative structural modeling and MICMAC analysis. As a result of the analyses, it has been seen that the barrier of the lack of qualified personnel and knowledge, which is necessary for the implementation of the circular economy in enterprises, has the highest impact on other barriers, followed by the uncertainty about the benefits of the circular economy and the lack of government support and legislation.

Döngüsel Ekonomi Önündeki Engellerin Yorumlayıcı Yapısal Modelleme Ve MICMAC Analizi İle Değerlendirilmesi

Öz

Son zamanlarda yaşanan iklim değişikliği, doğal afetler, kaynakların tükenmesi ve çevre problemleri dikkatleri döngüsel ekonomi üzerine çekmiştir. Artan farkındalık işletmeleri, kaynakların ekonomik kullanılmasının yollarını aramaya, çevreye daha az zarar verecek şekilde üretim yapmaya ve kararlarında toplumun sağlığını göz önünde bulundurmaya sevk etmiştir. Bu süreçte döngüsel ekonomi önündeki engellerin anlaşılması, bu engellerin aşılarak sürdürülebilirlik anlayışının yaygınlaşması için önemli bir konudur. Bu çalışmanın amacı, üretim sektöründe döngüsel ekonomi önündeki engelleri literatür incelemesine dayanarak listelemek, bu engeller arasındaki ilişkilerin hiyerarşik yapısını ortaya koymak ve etkileme gücüne göre bu engelleri sınıflandırmaktır. İlk aşamada, döngüsel ekonomi önündeki engelleri belirleyebilmek için kapsamlı bir literatür taraması yapılmış ve daha sonra uzman görüşleri alınarak araştırmada kullanılacak 9 engel belirlenmiştir. Engeller arasındaki ilişkiler yorumlayıcı yapısal modelleme ve MICMAC analizi ile incelenmiştir. Analizler sonucunda, döngüsel ekonominin işletmelerde uygulanması için gerekli olan nitelikli personel ve bilgi eksikliği engelinin diğer engelleri en yüksek etkileme gücüne sahip olduğu ve bunu sırasıyla döngüsel ekonominin sağlayacağı fayda konusundaki belirsizlik ve devlet desteği ve mevzuat eksikliğinin takip ettiği görülmüştür.
