Çin devlet başkanı Xi Jinping 10 Eylül 2013 tarihli Orta Asya ve Güneydoğu Asya bölgesi ülkeleri ziyareti sırasında gündeme getirdiği Kuşak ve Yol girişimi tüm dünyada ses getirmiştir. Türkiye dünya enerji talebinin büyük kısmını oluşturan Asya ve Avrupa arasında dünya enerji havzalarının merkezindeki transit konumuyla kuşak üzerindeki en önemli ülkelerden biridir. Çin’in Türkiye’de 2005 ve 2018 yılları arasında yapmış olduğu tüm yatırımların %63,1’ini sadece enerji sektörünün oluşturması Kuşak ve Yol projesinin enerji ayağında Çin’in Türkiye’ye olan ihtiyacını göstermektedir. Çalışmamızda kazan kazan ilkesi bağlamında Kuşak ve Yol projesinin Türk enerji sektörü için yaratabileceği fırsatlar üç başlık altında incelenmiştir. Türkiye’nin hızlı büyümesini gelecekte de sürdüreceği varsayımı altında artacak olan enerji ihtiyacının sağlanmasında Kuşak ve Yol projesi vasıtasıyla ulaşılacak yeni enerji kaynakları bu fırsatlardan biridir. Ayrıca proje sayesinde Türkiye’nin enerji arz güvenliği kaynak ülke çeşitlendirmesi artırılarak daha sağlam bir temele oturtulabilecektir. Son olarak hâlihazırda enerjide sadece bir transit ülke konumunda bulunan Türkiye proje sayesinde elde edebileceği enerji kaynakları ve bu kaynakları pazarlayabileceği yeni pazarlar sayesinde küresel bir enerji merkezi olma iddiasını güçlendirebilecektir.
As one of the fastest developing countries in the world, Turkey has been suffering from domestic violence significantly in recent decades and it has been one of the hottest topics discussed both in public and in the national media. On the other hand, it is interesting that according to United Nations Turkey is one of the leading countries in the MENA regarding the fight against domestic violence and supporting women's legal rights in general. However, beyond the legal rights and state support to women, together with other socioeconomic factors, employment status and financial empowerment of women may be linked to sexual and physical violence against women. In this study, it is aimed to investigate this potential relationship by using the "Research on Domestic Violence Against Women in Turkey" survey data conducted by the Turkish Statistical Institute in 2014. The multinomial probit model was used to modeling the effects of employment and financial empowerment on violence against women. According to estimations results, women who have a job may less likely to experience some types of domestic violence.
Considering rapidly rising air pollution and unemployment problem in Turkey, renewable energy may be the most appropriate solution for both of the problems. While positive effect of renewable energy on the environement is widely acknowledged, there isn't sufficient research about its effect on employment statistics. For this reason, in this study, the net employment benefit of the renewable-based electricity sector, against the fossil-based electricity sector, is investigated through Input-Output methodology. The estimation is done for both manufacturing/installation and operation/maintenance phases of solar, wind, hydropower, bioenergy, geothermal, coal, petrol, and natural gas-based electricity sectors, including all of the direct, indirect, and induced effects. According to the estimation results of both approaches and both of the phases, renewable-based electricity sectors are more effective than fossil-based electricity sectors in terms of employment generation. Therefore, besides its claimed benefits in terms of environment, the renewable energy sector may be a major instrument in the sustainable development efforts in Turkey, considering its employment benefits too.
Distributional aspect of Economics is very complex due to having many different dimensions such as social and cultural, economic and the most importantly political dimensions of it. Piero Sraffa is the one of the most exciting contributors of the economics science. However, his contribution doesn't contain an explicit theory of income distribution. While his open ended book Production of Commodities by Means of Commodities Prelude to a Critique of Economic Theory does not cover distribution of social surplus, his abandonment of subsistence wage together with his reference to the pool of profit concept derived from his archive interpreted from Marxian exploitation of labor perspective. Nevertheless that abandonment and pool of profit concept might have been interpreted from technical perspective related to the problematic nature of necessities too. In our study Sraffa's theory and methodology is investigated with the help of archival material to analyze distributional implications of it from Political Economy perspective.
