Economics, National Economics and Ziya Gökalp

Öz

The purpose of this article is to reveal the parallels between the economic proposals aimed at protecting their nations of Gökalp and List. As known, List is accepted as the inspiration for Gökalp’s views, and the founder of the German school of “National Economics”. Within the scope of this subject, a brief background of the establishment of economics as a science, and then, the emergence of the concept of “national economics” is provided. The presentation of List’s views is followed by Gökalp’s views on economic matters in a comparative perspective. Under World War I conditions, which was the beginning of a new history for national economics in Tur- key, Gökalp, like List, believed that it would not be just to implement the British eco- nomic policy in an economically underdeveloped country ravaged by wars. Both had nationalist, protectionist and statist views, and sought to elevate their countries to a status that would allow them to compete with other countries in the new world order.
