Today, although governance is important for every country, it is of great importance in solving economic and social problems especially in developing countries. Many studies in the literature reveal that the understanding of governance affects the economic performance of countries positively. In this context, it is possible to evaluate countries comparatively by considering the effects of their governance quality on national economies. In this study, it is aimed to emphasize that the countries that are in a good position in terms of governance indicators are generally more successful in sustainable economic growth and development, and it has been tried to show that institutional differences are effective on the development gap between countries. In this study, the role of governance on economic growth and development was discussed and comparisons were made between Turkey and G7 countries based on the governance indicators in The Worldwide Governance Indicators (WGI) of the World Bank and economic performance data obtained from the World Bank. Governance indicators and macroeconomic data obtained from the World Bank are tabulated and the current situation of Turkey and G7 countries is interpreted. Significant differences were observed in the comparisons made. G7 countries have high scoring governance indicators that can produce positive economic results. On the other hand, Turkey's economic and governance indicators lag behind the averages of developed countries. ; Günümüzde yönetişim herülke için önemli olmakla birlikte özellikle gelişmekte olan ülkelerde yaşanan ekonomik ve sosyal sorunların çözümünde büyük önem arz etmektedir. Literatürde birçok çalışma yönetişim anlayışının ülkelerin ekonomik performansını olumlu yönde etkilediğini ortaya koymaktadır. Bu bağlamda ülkeleri yönetişim kalitelerinin ülke ekonomileri üzerinde yarattığı etkileri ile ele alarak karşılaştırmalı olarak değerlendirmek mümkün olabilmektedir. Bu çalışmada yönetişim göstergeleri açısından iyi konumda olan ülkelerin, sürdürülebilir bir ekonomik büyüme ve gelişme konusunda genellikle daha başarılı olduğu vurgulanmak istenmiştir ve ülkeler arası gelişmişlik farkı üzerinde kurumsal farklılıkların etkili olduğu gösterilmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmada yönetişimin ekonomik büyüme ve gelişme üzerindeki rolü ele alınmış olup Türkiye ile G7 ülkeleri arasında Dünya Bankası'nın The Worldwide Governance Indicators'da (WGI) yer alan yönetişim göstergelerine ve Dünya Bankası'ndan elde edilmiş ekonomik performans verilerine dayanarak karşılaştırmalar yapılmıştır. Dünya Bankasından elde edilen yönetişim göstergeleri ve makroekonomik veriler tablolaştırılarak Türkiye ve G7 ülkelerinin mevcut durumu yorumlanmıştır. Yapılan karşılaştırmalarda önemli farklılıklar olduğu gözlemlenmiştir. G7 ülkeleri olumlu ekonomik sonuçlar doğurabilen yüksek puanlı yönetişim göstergelerine sahiptirler. Türkiye'nin ise hem ekonomik hem de yönetişim göstergeleri gelişmiş ülkelerin ortalamalarının gerisinde kalmaktadır.

This article analyzes the civil society dimension and pays particular attention to the role of civil society's organizations within the EU's Eastern Partnership's governance and networking processes. The study is based on the EU's documents' analysis and the data of qualitative interviews conducted between 2011-2014 from the respondents of the EU's institutions (European Commission, EEAS, EP), member states' representations in Brussels, and the members of the Eastern Partnership civil society forum created in 2009. The study shows that the representatives of civil society organizations are seeking to be involved and are existent in most of the stages and interactional modes of the EU's relations with the Eastern Partnership countries, and this process predicts the conditions for the emergence of international governance in the Eastern neighborhood space. On the other hand, the representatives of CSOs are complaining about not being involved enough in the negotiations deciding over the Association or other kind of agreements between the EU and their (EaP) country.

Bu çalışmada gerek küresel gerek teknolojik anlamda yaşanan gelişmeler ve değişimler ve bunların getirdiği yenileşme sürecinde kamu yönetimlerinde reform ihtiyacı bağlamında yönetişim anlayışı incelenmiştir. Bu çerçevede çalışmanın birinci bölümünde öncelikle yönetişim kavramının ifade ettiği anlam açıklanmış ve yönetişimin benzer ya da yakın anlam ifade ettiği diğer kavramlarla ortak ve ayrık yönleri ortaya konmuştur. Ayrıca yönetişimin genel özellikleri üzerinde durulmuş ve içerik itibarıyla sahip olduğu ilkeler ayrıntılı bir şekilde irdelenmiştir. Çalışmanın ikinci bölümünde, yönetişimin unsurlarından sivil toplum örgütleri ve devlet ayrıntılı bir şekilde incelenmiş ve bu unsurların Türkiye değerlendirmesi yapılmıştır. Bundan sonra ülkemizde öncelikle kamu yönetiminde reforma duyulan ihtiyacın tespit edilen nedenleri üzerinde durulmuştur. Çalışmanın üçüncü bölümünde ise kamu yönetiminde reform gerekliliği kapsamında yönetişim adımı olarak değerlendirilebilecek bazı düzenlemeler tespit edilerek bunların gelişim sürecine değinilip yönetişim kapsamında ifade ettiği anlam yönetişimin ilkeleri çerçevesinde belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonuç bölümünde ise özellikle yönetişim kapsamında ortaya konan Türkiye değerlendirmeleri çerçevesinde yönetişimin ülkemiz kamu yönetimi için gerekliliği savından hareketle ülkemiz kamu yönetiminde yönetişim uygulamalarına engel etkenler tespit edilerek bazı önerilerde bulunulmuştur. ; In this study the idea of governance is investigated in the concept of reform necessity in the public administration, the developments and changes in both the global and techonological area.

The functions and powers of local self-governance are broadly discussed at all levels of government institutions, non-governmental organizations and communities. There is an expressed position that local communities and their local self-governing institutions should be given the power of subsidiary decision making in locally specific issues. However, year after year, the unanimous attitude is suppressed by financial and fiscal dependence upon the central government, unreasonably large territorial units with high population density. These circumstances limit down the decision-making and, moreover, the implementation of the decisions. From this point of view, the financial and fiscal powers of local self-governing institutions and, consequently, the decision-making strata are significantly different from those in other Baltic and Central European countries, as well as Scandinavian states. This article deals with the analysis of local self-governing administration in terms of its fiscal and financial empowerment, the size of the local communities and its impact on decision-making. A comparison is drawn with Scandinavian, central European and Baltic countries. ; Lietuvos vietos savivaldos funkcionavimo bei jos galių klausimu daug diskutuojama įvairių lygių valdžios institucijose, visuomeninėse organizacijose, bendruomenėse. Vieningai pritariama, jog būtina suteikti didesnes galias pačioms bendruomenėms bei jų išrinktoms vietos valdžios institucijoms spręsti tas problemas, kurias jos geriausiai išmano (subsidiarumas). Deja, metai iš metų, kalbant apie vietos savivaldos galių didinimą, nesikeičia vietos savivaldos finansinė ir fiskalinė priklausomybė nuo centrinės valdžios, lieka nepagrįstai dideli savivaldybių teritorijos dydžiai (gyventojų kiekis). Tai lemia ribotas sprendimų priėmimo galimybes, jau priimtų sprendimų įgyvendinimą. Lietuvos vietos savivaldos finansinis ir fiskalinis savarankiškumas bei iš to sekanti sprendimų priėmimo galimybė gerokai skiriasi nuo kitų Baltijos bei Vidurio Europos ir Skandinavijos valstybių. Šis straipsnis skirtas mūsų valstybės vietos savivaldos fiskalinio bei finansinio savarankiškumo bei savivaldybių dydžių palyginti su Skandinavijos, Vidurio Europos ir Baltijos valstybėmis nulemtai sprendimų priėmimo galių analizei.

TEZ9907 ; Tez (Doktora) -- Çukurova Üniversitesi, Adana, 2015. ; Kaynakça (s. 244-265) var. ; xviii, 266 s. ; 29 cm. ; Sosyal bilimlerin birçok alanında kullanılan, disiplinler arası bir kavram olan kurumlar, iktisat yazınında önemli bir yer tutmaya başlamıştır. North'un kavramsallaştırması ile oyunun kuralları olarak tanımlanan kurumlar, bireylerin davranışkalıplarını belirleyen kısıtları koymaktadır. Bu kısıtlar resmi veya gayri resmi nitelikte olabilir. İnsan davranışları üzerindeki etkisi her geçen gün daha fazla kabul gören kurumlar, iktisadi ve siyasi olarak sistemin işleyişini, sistemin kazan ve kaybedenlerini de belirleme gücüne sahiptir. Bu işleyiş birçok araştırmacı tarafından farklı yönleri ile alınarak kavramsallaştırılmıştır. Kurumların gelişmişlik düzeyi üzerindeki etkisini ele alan birçok kuram geliştirilmiştir. Kurumlar literatürüne bu anlamda katkı sunan önemli isimlerden biri de Daron Acemoğlu'dur. Kurumların kapsayıcı veya dışlayıcı niteliğe sahip olmasını toplumsal atışma teorisi temelinde ele alan Acemoğlu'na göre kapsayıcı kurumlara sahip ülkeler gelişme gösterebilmektedir. Çünkü bu ülkeler farklı sosyal gruplar arasında uzlaştırıcı bir iktisadi ve siyasi sistem kurgulayarak siyasi gücün tek bir kişi veya grup elinde toplanmasını engellemektedir. Böylelikle yatırım ve yenilik yapma isteği, kendi kazancına ve mülkiyetine sahip çıkabileceğini bilen bireylerin oluşturduğu toplumlarda gelişmiş olmaktadır. Gelişme probleminin önündeki en önemli sorun, elindeki siyasi gücü kaybetme kaygısı taşıyan seçkinlerin toplumun elindeki kaynakları sadece kendileri için kullanmasıdır. Siyasi kaybedenler hipotezi olarak ifade edilen bu yaklaşım, siyasi gücün ve siyasi kurumların önemine de vurgu yapar. Bu çalışmada siyasi kaybedenler hipotezi Türkiye özelinde de ele alınarak değerlendirilmiştir. Cumhuriyetin kuruluşundan bugüne kadar farklı sosyal gruplar arasındaki çatışmaları uzlaştırıcı kapsayıcı kurumların oluşturulamaması, yönetişim başarısızlıklarının temel sonucu olarak görülmektedir. Ayrıca yapılan panel ; Institution as an interdisciplinary concept which is used in a vast range of social sciences has a great importance in economics literature nowadays. Related to the North, we can define it as the rule of games, which means that institutions put constrains on individuals' behaviors. These constraints can be in formal forms as well as informal ones. That the human behaviors are designed by institutions is becoming a wellaccepted idea day by day, therefore it is the same to accept thefunctions of institutions in economics and social process; its power on determining the losers and winners of society. This process with its different sides has been investigated by scientists. Several theories are constructed for understanding therelations between institutions and development level. Daron Acemoğlu is one of the economists who have important contributions to the institutional theory. He uses inclusive and exclusive institutions concept with social conflict theories for explaining the reason for that some countries have better development level in compare to others. Since these countries succeed in establishing political and economic institutions which have ability solve social conflicts in order to prevent elites' selfinterested behaviors for using societies' resources. Therefore incentives for investment and innovation can grow societies which have well protected property rights and gains. The most important problem for development is the fear of elites who do not want to lose their political power. This theory is called political losers hypothesis and it underlines the importance of political institutions accompanied with political power. In this study, political losers hypothesis was investigated as a case study for Turkey's history. The main result is that Turkey's exclusive institutions have inability to solve social conflicts which cause the governance problems. Additionally, the panel data analysis results support the informal institutions' effects on development and shows how it affects the changes related to development level. ; Bu çalışma Ç.Ü.

Yerel yönetim alanında yapılanmevzuat değişiklikleri göz ününe alındığındamahalle yönetimleri, merkez ve yerel arasındakalan bir yer teşkil etmektedir. Mahalleyönetimleri konusunda herhangi bir değişikliğinyapılmamış olması, mahallelerin anakronik birmesele olarak kalmasına neden olmuştur. Yerelyönetim mevzuatlarında birçok değişiklikyapılmasına rağmen yerel demokrasininbe şiğini t e şkil eden köy ve maha ll eyönetimlerine bigane kalınması kentselalanların temelini teşkil eden mahalleyönetimlerini birçok sorunla karşı karşıyabırakmıştır. Diğer yerel yönetim birimleridevingen bir mevzuat değişikliğine tabiiolurken, yerel demokrasinin ilk sacayağınıteşkil eden bu birimler 65 yılı aşan kanunlarlayönetilmektedirler. Birçok benzerliğe karşınmahalle yönetiminin sahip olduğu sorunlar onuköy yönetiminden ayırarak sahip olduğuproblemleri sistematik hale getirmektedir. Buamaçla çalışmada; Osmanlıdan Cumhuriyeteintikal eden tarihsel misyonuyla mahalleyönetiminin gelişimi ve Cumhuriyet dönemindeyaşadığı mevzuat değişikliklerinin yanı sıra,"kimlik sorunu" başta olmak üzere, "nüfus" veyeni büyükşehir mevzuatı çerçevesindekisorunları ele alınmıştır. Mahalle yönetimininbizce en önemli sorunu olarak görülen busorunlar, mahalle yönetimlerini birçoktartışmanın odağına taşımış bulunmaktadır. Buhedefle mahalle yönetimlerine ilişkin birtakımöneriler tartışılmıştır ; Given the legislative changes made in the local administration area, it is seen that the neighborhood administrations remain between the center and the local. The fact that no changes have been made regarding neighborhood administrations caused the neighborhoods to turn into an anachronical problem. Although many changes have been made in local government regulations, the lack of interest in the village and neighborhood administrations that form the basis of local democracy has left the neighborhood administrations that constitute the basis of the urban areas facing many problems. While other local government units are subject to dynamic legislation neighborhood governments, which constitute the first pillar of local democracy, are governed by laws over 65 years. Despite many similarities, the problems of the neighborhood administration make it systematic by separating it from the village administration. In this study, firstly, the development of neighborhood management is discussed with its historical mission from the Ottoman to the Republic. In addition to the legislative changes made in the Republican period, the problems within the framework of "population" and the new metropolitan legislation, especially the "identity problem", have been discussed. These topics, which constitute the main problems of neighborhood management, have been examined in detail and some solutions for these problems have been presented.

Yönetişim, devlet yönetiminde geleneksel olana (kamu kurumlarının tekil aktörlüğüne) yeni bir seçenektir. Karar alma yetki ve gücünü merkezin dışına taşıyan yönetişim, müzakereye dayalı bir yönetimin ifadesi olarak kabul edilir. Bu yönüyle hem daha verimli hem de daha demokratik bir yönetimi ifade eder. Türkiye'de 2006 yılından itibaren kurulan kalkınma ajansları da yönetişim örneği olarak adlandırılır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, kalkınma ajanslarının yapısal düzenlemelerin dışında gerçek anlamda bir yönetişim örneği olup olmadığını güncel raporlar ışığında ortaya çıkarabilmektir ; Governance is a new alternative of the state's traditional forms of administration to the singular agent of public institutions. Governance, which carries decisionmaking authority and power out of the core, is considered a hallmark of administration based on negotiation. In this sense, it refers to both more democratic and more efficient form of administration. Turkish development agencies that have been established since 2006 are also labeled as an example of governance. The aim of this study is to demonstrate, beyond the structural adjustments, whether development agencies are examples of governance in real sense in the light of recent reports.
