Makro-ekonomik büyümeye mikro-kültürel bir yaklaşım: Türkiye’de kentlerin kültürel büyüme dinamikleri

Büyüme literatüründeki yeni trend, mikro düzeyli ekonomik büyüme olgusunun gele- neksel olmayan dinamiklerinin araştırılmasıdır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türk ekonomisinin en üretken kentlerinde kültürel büyüme dinamiklerinin tespit edilmesidir. Bulgular, söz konusu kentlerde ekonomik büyümeye neden olan kültürel dinamiklerin geleceğe odaklanma, hukukun üstünlüğü, iş ahlakı, bireycilik, dindarlık, eğitim, servet, hayırseverlik, iş çevreleri ve üniversite- lerle ilişkiler, sekülerlik ve hemşericilik olduğunu ve söz konusu dinamiklerin etkilerinin ele alınan kente bağlı olarak farklılık gösterdiğini ortaya koymuştur.
