PİYASA: ADAM SMITH VERSUS KARL POLANYİ

Öz

Bu çalışmada, piyasayı görünmez el aracılığı ile tahsisi sağlayan bir mekanizma olarak gören ve doğal düzene inanan Adam Smith ile piyasanın aslında kendisinin ekonomiye bir müdahale tarzı olduğunu ileri süren Karl Polanyi’nin görüşlerinin karşılaştırmalı bir analizi yapılacaktır. Çalışmanın birinci bölümünde, devlete çok kısıtlı görevler atfeden ve görünmez bir el aracılığı ile toplumsal çıkarların gerçekleştirileceğini savunan Adam Smith’in piyasaya dair görüşleri, ikinci bölümünde piyasa toplumunun ve piyasa ekonomisinin kendiliğinden ortaya çıkmadığını, piyasa ekonomisinin inşası için çok ciddi bir devlet müdahalesinin gerekli olduğunu savunan Karl Polanyi’nin görüşleri incelenecektir. Sonuç bölümünde ise iki farklı piyasa kavramsallaştırmasının karşılaştırmalı bir analizi yapılarak bu anlayışların günümüze ne kadar ışık tuttuğu ortaya konulmaya çalışılacaktır.
