Bu
makale Gelir
ve Yaşam Koşulları Araştırması’nı kullanarak
2006-2014 dönemi için Türkiye’deki gelir eşitsizliğini incelemektedir
.
Bu amaçla, mikroekonomik faktörlerin gelir eşitsizliği üzerindeki etkisini ortaya
koymak için regresyon temelli ayrıştırma
yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular hanehalkı liderinin
yaşının, hanede kişi başına düşen işsiz
sayısının ve kişi başına düşen kötü sağlık durumunun
eşitsizlik üstünde küçük bir etkisi olduğunu, buna karşın kişi başına düşen
eğitimin ve bölgenin yalnızca eşitsizlikteki ağırlıkları anlamında değil
eşitsizlikteki değişim anlamında da çok büyük etkiye sahip olduğuna işaret
etmektedir. Bu durum gelir eşitsizliğini azaltmayı amaçlayan karar alıcıların
eğitim ve bölgeyi politika oluşturma sürecinde ana faktörler olarak ele
almaları gerektiğini ortaya koymaktadır.

This paper examines the income inequality in Turkey
over the period 2006-2014 by using Income Living Condition Survey. To this end,
regression-based decomposition method has been used to demonstrate the influence of microeconomic factors on the income
inequality. Findings indicate that the age of household head, unemployed
household members per capita and ill health
status per capita have a small effect on inequality while education per capita and
region have an enormous effect not only in terms of relative factor weight but also in terms of change effect. This
reveals that policy makers who pursue to
reduce income inequality should consider education and region as major factors
in the policy making process.
