Financial crisis in Southern Europe in comparison with Eastern Europe

Bu makale Güney Avrupa’da yaşanmakta olan finans krizini Doğru Avrupa ile karşılaştırmalı olarak incelemektedir. Makalenin bulguları şunlardır: Avrupa Birliği’nin ekonomik uzamının homojen olarak ele alınması kriz sonrasında artık olası değildir ve merkez-çevre yapılarının daha fazla incelenmesi gerekmektedir. İkinci olarak, 2000’li yıllardaki düşük büyüme oranlarının gösterdiği gibi kriz her yerde yaşanmakta ise de, Doğu ve Güney Avrupa’nın gelişmeleri birbirlerinden giderek artan oranda farklılaşmıştır. Bunun nedeni iki bölgenin Avrupa ve özelde Alman üretken merkezi ile farklı eklemlenme biçimlerinde aranmalıdır.

Doğu Avrupa ile karşılaştırmalı olarak Güney Avrupa finans krizi

This paper examines the recent financial crisis in Southern Europe in comparison with Eastern Europe. The findings of the paper are as follows: (i) Firstly, the economic space of the EU can no longer be taken as homogeneous, and the core-periphery structures must be examined more thoroughly; (ii) Second, while the crisis is seen everywhere in Europe as it is attested by the low growth rates in the 2000s, the fates of Eastern and Southeastern Europe have diverged from each other, for they have different ways of articulation with the European and German productive core.
