Ülkelerin sürdürülebilir kalkınmaları, verimlilikleri, etkinlikleri ve performans göstergelerindeki artışlar rekabet edebilirliklerine bağlıdır. Bu yüzden ülkelerin rekabet edebilirlikleri ve mevcut durumlarının belirlenmesi önem arz etmektedir. Bu bağlamda bu çalışmanın temel amacı ülkelerin rekabet edebilirlik faktörlerinin WASPAS ve PROMETHEE yöntemleri kullanılarak değerlendirilmesidir. Çalışma kapsamında Yönetim Geliştirme Enstitüsü (International Institute of Management Development- IMD)’nün 2022 yılında yayımladığı Dünya Rekabet Edebilirlik Raporu’nda yer alan 63 ülke; ekonomik performans, kamu etkinliği, iş etkinliği ve altyapı olmak üzere 4 kritere göre sıralanmıştır. Ülkelerin rekabet edebilirliklerine göre sıralanmasında öncelikle kriterler Entropi yöntemi ile ağırlıklandırılmıştır. Hesaplanan ağırlıklar doğrultusunda 63 ülke WASPAS (Weighted Aggregates Sum Product Assessment) ve PROMETHEE (Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluation) yöntemlerine göre sıralanarak IMD Dünya Rekabet Edebilirlik Raporu (2022) ile karşılaştırılmıştır. Yapılan analiz sonuçlarına göre rekabet edebilirlik açısından IMD Dünya Rekabet Edebilirlik Raporu (2022), WASPAS, PROMETHEE olmak üzere her üç durumda da en iyi performansa sahip olan ülkenin Danimarka, en iyi ikinci performansı gösteren ülkenin İsveç, son sırada yer alan ülkenin ise Venezuela olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

Evaluation of Countries’ Competitiveness by Entropy-Based WASPAS and PROMETHEE Methods

Öz

Sustainable development, productivity, efficiency and increases in performance indicators of countries depend on their competitiveness. Therefore, it is important to determine the competitiveness and the current status of countries. In this context, the main purpose of this study is to evaluate the competitiveness factors of countries by using WASPAS and PROMETHEE methods. Within the scope of the study, 63 countries included in the World Competitiveness Report published by the International Institute of Management Development (IMD) in 2022 have been listed according to 4 criteria: economic performance, government efficiency, business efficiency and infrastructure. In order to rank the countries according to their competitiveness, first of all, the criteria have been weighted by the Entropy method. According to the calculated weights, 63 countries have been ranked according to the WASPAS (Weighted Aggregates Sum Product Assessment) and PROMETHEE (Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluation) methods and compared with the IMD World Competitiveness Report (2022). According to the results of the analysis, it has been determined that the country with the best performance in terms of competitiveness in all three of the IMD World Competitiveness Report (2022), WASPAS and PROMETHEE is Denmark, the country with the second best performance is Sweden, and the country in the last place is Venezuela.
