AVRUPA’DA REKABETÇİ SÜRDÜRÜLEBİLİRLİĞİN POLİTİK ARACI: UFUK AVRUPA PROGRAMI

Bu çalışma, Avrupa’nın yeni büyüme stratejisini ekonomi politik açıdan değerlendirmektedir. Avrupa kapitalizmine içkin olan rekabet edebilirlik ve ekonomik büyüme hedeflerinin, yerkürenin doğal kaynaklarının sınırlılığı ekseninde sürdürülebilirlik kavramı ile harmanlandığı vurgulanmakta; kapitalist üretim tarzı içinde çelişkili görünen rekabetçi sürdürülebilirlik hedefinin olanaklılığı sorgulanmaktadır. Bu çerçevede artan kâr oranları, ekonomik büyüme, verimlilik ve üretkenlik hedeflerini merkezinde tutan Avrupa kapitalizminin, söz konusu hedeflere çevresel sürdürülebilirlik ekseninden vazgeçmeden ulaşma girişimi eleştirel yöntemle değerlendirilmektedir. Rekabetçi sürdürülebilirlik hedefine yönelik geliştirilen Avrupa Yeşil Mutabakat ile Avrupa içinde eşgüdüm amaçlayan Avrupa Sömestri ve Toparlanma ve Dayanıklılık İmkânı irdelenmektedir. Çalışma, Avrupa’nın rekabetçi sürdürülebilirlik hedefinin gerçekçi bir zemine taşınabilmesi için araştırma ve yenilikçilik stratejilerine ihtiyaç duyulduğunu savlamakta; bilimsel ve teknolojik öncelikleri ile Ufuk Avrupa Programı’nın politik bir araç olarak rekabetçi sürdürülebilirlik hedefine hizmet ettiğini vurgulamaktadır.

A Political Tool for Competitive Sustainability in Europe: Horizon Europe Programme

This paper presents a critical analysis on Europe’s new growth strategy. It argues that the new growth strategy blends competitiveness and its economic growth targets, with the limits of natural resources and environmental sustainability. It critically inquires the consistency between growth, profitability, productivity and efficiency, and environmental sustainability. On this basis, the paper questions the possibility of the mutual existence of competitiveness and sustainability. It analyses the mechanisms promoted for competitive sustainability – European Green Deal, European Semester, and Recovery and Resilience Facility. The paper argues that Europe utilises its research strategies to put competitive sustainability on a realist ground. It claims that, with its scientific and technological priorities, Horizon Europe Programme serves as a political tool for competitive sustainability in Europe.
