AKDENİZ’E KIYISI OLAN ÜLKELERDE KURUMSAL YAPININ TURİZME ETKİLERİNİN ANALİZİ

Kurumsal iktisat literatürü, kapsayıcı kurumların ülkede hemen hemen tüm sektörlerde etkinliği arttırarak ekonomik büyümeyi teşvik ettiğini ileri sürmektedir. Kurumsal yapı, beraberinde getirdiği güven ortamı ve teşvikler sayesinde turizm sektörü üzerinde de etkili olmaktadır. Bu bağlamda turizmin belirleyicileri üzerine yapılan çalışmalar incelendiğinde, ekonomik ve sosyal faktörler üzerine çok sayıda çalışma yapıldığını ancak turizmin kurumsal belirleyicileri ile ilgili çalışmaların sınırlı sayıda olduğu dikkati çekmektedir. Bu çalışma, Türkiye’nin de aralarında bulunduğu Akdeniz’e kıyısı olan dokuz ülkede ekonomik ve kurumsal faktörler ile turizm arasındaki nedensellik ilişkilerini 1995-2015 yıllarını kapsayan dönemde Konya (2006) panel nedensellik analiz yöntemini kullanarak araştırmaktadır. Kurumsal yapının göstergesi olarak yolsuzluk ve demokratik hesap verebilirlik değişkenlerinin kullanıldığı çalışmada elde edilen sonuçlar, kurumsal faktörlerden turizme doğru bir nedensellik ilişkisini ortaya koymaktadır.

AN ANALYSIS OF THE IMPACT OF INSTITUTIONAL STRUCTURE ON TOURISM IN THE MEDITERRANEAN COUNTRIES

Institutional economics literature suggests that inclusive institutions encourage economic growth by increasing efficiency in almost all sectors of the economy. Institutional structure also has effects on the tourism sector due to the confidential environment and incentives it brings. In this context, when studies on determinants of tourism are examined, it is remarkable that there are a number of studies on economic and social factors, but that there are limited studies about institutional determinants of tourism. This study investigates the causal relationships between institutional factors and tourism sector in nine Mediterranean coastal countries also including Turkey for the period of 1995-2015 by using Konya (2006) panel causality analysis. The results of the study using variables of corruption and democratic accountability as indicative of institutional structure reveal causal relations between tourism and institutional factors.
