İKTİSADİ ETKİNLİK ÜZERİNE BİR DENEME: X ETKİNLİK YAKLAŞIMI

İktisat, uzun yıllar boyunca iktisadi etkinlik olarak Neoklasik-Pareto etkinlik teorisini kullanmıştır. İktisadi hayatın etkinliğini-etkisizliğini açıklamaya yeterli olmayan bu görüşe karşı bazı yaklaşımlar getirilmesine karşın, halihazırda modern iktisat teorisinin kullanmış olduğu genel ve kapsayıcı bir iktisadi etkinlik tanımlaması yapılamamıştır. İktisadi etkinlik üzerine devam eden tartışmanın boyutları, X etkinlik yaklaşımından, modern firma teorilerine kadar uzanmaktadır. Bu deneme, X etkinlik teorisinden yola çıkarak, gerçek iktisadi hayatta var olan etkinsizlik kaynaklarını irdelemeyi ve iktisadi etkinliğin, günümüz piyasa ilişkilerindeki belirleyicilerini modellemeyi hedeflemektedir.

AN ESSAY ON ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY: X-EFFICIENCY APPROACH

Economics has used Neoclassical-Pareto Efficiency Theory as economic efficiency for a long time. However, this theory is not sufficient to explain the in efficiencies of the real economic activity. Although some approaches have introduced against the conventional theory, a more general and comprehensive explanation on efficiency is that engaged by modern economic theory has not yet been in force. The dimensions of ongoing controversy has reached from X in efficiency approach to the modern theories of the firm. Departing X in efficiency approach, the aim of this essay is to study the sources of efficiency existing in the real economic life and to model its determinants within today’s market relations
