Abstract

Bu tezde Türkiye'nin makroekonomik döngüleri ve AB sürecinde birlik ekonomilerine ne kadar yakınsadığı araştırılmaktadır. İlk bölümde konjonktürel dalgalanma teorileri incelenirken, ikinci bölümde oynaklık ve korelasyon testleri yapılmıştır. GSYİH, büyüme, sabit sermaye yatırımları ve cari denge araştırma yapılan ana makroekonomik büyüklüklerdir. Yapılan testler ve araştırma sonucunda, Türkiye'nin sözkonusu olan değişkenler gözönünde bulundurulduğunda AB ekonomilerinden farklı hareket ettiği ortaya çıkmıştır. Kısa dönemde AB ekonomilerine bir yakınsama olmayacağına dair bir sonuca varilmıştır. The thesis studies the macroeconomic cycles in Turkey deliberating the convergence subject in the context of EU.

On the volatility front economic aggregates of Turkey fluctuates less than the average of the selected country group.

The current account balance and investment patterns are related to EU story. As the GDP increases the current account deficit increases with a financing strategy by the FDI in line with considering the EU story as an anchor.
