Abstract

This study examines the long run nexus between globalization and employment level of Turkey for the years of 1970-2019 by using ARDL approach. The result of co-integration test implemented via ARDL boundary test show that inflation, globalization and employment are co-integrated and they move together in the long-run in Turkey. According to the long-run coefficient estimation findings, globalization has a positive and statistically significant effect on employment level. On the other hand inflation has a negative and statistically significant effect on employment level. In other words one percent jump in globalization level is followed by a 0.853% rise in employment level while one percent rise in globalization level leads to a drop by 0.057% in employment level in Turkey. Lastly based on VAR Granger Causality test findings, causalities running from GLOB and EMP variables to INF variable and also from INF and GLOB variables to EMP variable are identified.

Abstract

Bu çalışma, 1970-2019 yılları için Türkiye'nin küreselleşme ve istihdam düzeyi arasındaki uzun dönemli ilişkiyi ARDL yaklaşımıyla incelemektedir. ARDL sınır testi ile uygulanan eşbütünleşme testinin sonucu, Türkiye'de enflasyon, küreselleşme ve istihdamın eşbütünleşik olduğunu ve uzun vadede birlikte hareket ettiklerini göstermektedir. Uzun dönem katsayı tahmin bulgularına göre küreselleşmenin istihdam düzeyi üzerinde pozitif ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir etkisi vardır. Enflasyonun ise istihdam düzeyi üzerinde negatif ve istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir etkisi vardır. Diğer bir deyişle, küreselleşme düzeyindeki yüzde birlik sıçramayı, Türkiye'de istihdam düzeyindeki yüzde 0,853'lük bir artış takip ederken, küreselleşme düzeyindeki yüzde birlik artış, Türkiye'de istihdam düzeyindeki yüzde 0,057'lik bir düşüşe yol açmaktadır. Son olarak VAR Granger Nedensellik testi bulgularına dayalı olarak, GLOB ve EMP değişkenlerinden INF değişkenine ve ayrıca INF ve GLOB değişkenlerinden EMP değişkenine uzanan nedensellikler tespit edilmiştir.
