Abstract

Bu çalışmada büyüme, eşitsizlik ve yoksulluk arasındaki ilişki güncel ekonomi politika tartışmaları paralelinde gözden geçirilmektedir. Bu tartışmalar, pazar güdümlü büyümenin yoksulluğu ortadan kaldırmak ve eşitsizliği azaltmak için yeterli olup olmadığına veya belirli politikaların gerekli olup olmadığına, yani öngörülemeyen büyümenin yetersiz olabileceğine odaklanmaktadır. Çalışma ayrıca, gelir eşitsizliğinin rolüne vurgu yaparak, gelişmekte olan ve geçiş ülkelerinde ekonomik büyümenin yoksulluk azalmasına dönüşmesine ilişkin tartışmalara değinmektedir. Elde edilen sonuçlar, son 10 yılda meydana gelen ekonomik büyümenin, 2000-2016 yılları arasında, insani gelişme değişkeninde, özellikle beklenen yaşam süresinde bir artışla hesaplanan yoksullukta bir azalmaya katkıda bulunmadığına işaret etmektedir. Hatta siyasi çoğulculuk ve demokrasi için vekalet ve hesap verebilirlik gibi değişkenler daha da kötüleşmiştir. Bununla birlikte, U şeklindeki Kuznets eğrisi gözlemlenememiştir. Çünkü eşitsizlikte azalma, uzun bir büyüme döneminden sonra gerçekleşmektedir. Sonuçlar, yetişkin okuryazarlığı ve kamu harcamaları daha düşük olan ülkelerin daha yüksek gelir eşitsizliği olduğu fikrini desteklemektedir
