Son yıllarda Ortodoks
iktisat teorilerinin varsayımlarına ilişkin yapılan eleştirilerin artması,
heterodoks iktisat teorileri üreten çalışmalara olan ilgiyi arttırmıştır.  Bu bağlamda heterodoks iktisat, ortodoks iktisadın
varsayımlarını eleştirerek, bu varsayımların önem arz ettiği uluslararası
iktisat teorileri gibi alanlarda yeni çalışmalar üretmiştir. Heterodoks iktisat
kapsamındaki bu teoriler, esnek varsayımlara uyarlanabilme ve kesinlik içermeme
özelliklerinden dolayı ağ modelleri ve ajan-temelli modelleme gibi
hesaplanabilir yöntemlerle analiz edilmeye uygun bulunmaktadır. Bu noktada oyun
teorisi de tek başına veya sözü edilen analiz yöntemlerine yardımcı olarak
kullanılabilecek yöntemlerden birisidir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, heterodoks iktisadın esnek
varsayımlarının uyarlanabileceği esnek yapıda ampirik analiz yöntemlerinin
gelişmesine katkıda bulunmaktır. Bu amaçla, evrimsel oyun teorisi ve davranışsal
oyun teorisi gibi yeni heterodoks iktisat okullarının gelişmesi ile ortodoks
iktisadın varsayımlarından arındırılan oyun teorisi araç olarak
kullanılacaktır. Bu çalışma kapsamında yapılacak uygulamada uluslararası
ticaretin ifadesinde kullanılan mahkûm ikilemi oyunu kazanç matrisi
Prebisch-Singer hipotezinin iddiasına göre yeniden düzenlenecektir. Böylece
heterodoks iktisat teorileri için yeni geliştirilecek ampirik analizlerde
kullanılacak hesaplanabilir yöntemler için bir davranış kuralı olarak oyun
teorisinden daha geniş biçimde nasıl yararlanılabileceği de gösterilmiş
olacaktır.

RETHINKING THE PRISONER’S DILEMMA GAME WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF THE PREBISCH-SINGER HYPOTHESIS

Öz

In recent years, the increasing criticism of the
assumptions of Orthodox economic theories has increased the interest in studies
that produce heterodox economics theories. In this context, by criticizing the
assumptions of orthodox economics, heterodox economics has produced new studies
in areas such as international economic theories in which these assumptions are
essential. These theories within heterodox economics are appropriate to be
analyzed with computable methods such as network models and agent-based
modeling because of their features of being adaptable to flexible assumptions
and not including certainty. At this point, game theory is one of the methods
that can be used alone or as an aid to the analysis methods mentioned. This
study aims to contribute to the development of empirical analysis methods in a
flexible structure in which the flexible assumptions of heterodox economics can
be adapted. For this purpose, the game theory, which is purified from the
assumptions of orthodox economics theories with the development of new
Heterodox economics schools, such as the evolutionary game theory and
behavioral game theory, will be used as a tool. 
In the context of this study, "the prisoner's dilemma game gain matrix,"
which is used for the expression of international trade in the practice to be
performed, will be rearranged according to the claim of the Prebisch-Singer
hypothesis. By this means, it will also be
shown how to utilize game theory more broadly as a behavioral rule for
computational methods in newly developed empirical analyses for heterodox
economics theories.
