Küresel Finans Krizine Karşı Korumacılık: Bir GFZT Yaklaşımı

ABD’de birkaç emlak bankasının iflasıyla başlayan ve 2008’de küresel bir boyut kazanan finans krizi, pragmatik bir çözüm olarak korumacılık stratejisi ile birlikte dünya ekonomilerini meşgul etti. Bu strateji, “Washington Uzlaşması”na dayalı “yeni liberalizm”e karşı “yeni merkantilist” anlayışı yansıtmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, önce kriz boyunca alınmış korumacı önlemler dünya bölgeleri bağlamında ortaya konulmakta; daha sonra bu önlemlerin güçlü G taraflarına, yarattığı olası fırsatlara F , zayıf Z yönlerine ve arz ettiği tehlikelere T dikkat çekilerek bir GFZT SOWT yaklaşımı sergilenmektedir. Türkiye ve dünya ekonomisi için çıkarılan ‘kriz ve korumacılık dersleri’ bu çerçevede tartışılmaktadır

PROTECTIONISM AGAINST GLOBAL FINANCIAL CRISIS: A SOWT APPROACH

The financial crisis, which began with the bankruptcy of a few mortgage banks in the USA and gained a global dimension in 2009, occupied the agenda of world economies together with the strategy of protectionism as a pragmatic solution to it. This strategy reflects a “neo-mercantilist” view based on “Washington Consensus” versus “neo-liberal” view. This study sets forth the protectionist measures taken throughout the crisis in respect of the world regions and implements a SOWT analysis by focusing on the strengths S , the possible opportunities O , the weaknesses W and the threats T of these measures. The lessons learned with respect to “crisis and protectionism” for Turkey and the world economies are discussed within this framework
