The phenomenon of globalization, which refers to societies entering a process of integration in economic, political and cultural fields, has accelerated since the last quarter of the 20th century and left its mark on the social relations of the recent period. The carrier of globalization has been the neoliberal economic policies that have been disseminated across the world since the end of the bipolar world order. The neoliberal economic policy imposed on national economies by supranational organizations aims to remove obstacles to capital. Throughout most of the 20th century, the nation-state, which was the dominant force intervening in the economy, was seen as the most important obstacle on this path, while attempts were made to weaken the functions of the nation-state by transferring them to market forces. In order to legitimize these practices, discourses that globalization will bring freedom, peace and prosperity come into play in this process, while social reality tells a different story. Contrary to the promises of neoliberal globalization, inequalities, ecological risks, wars and economic crises have recently gained visibility. However, the Covid-19 pandemic, which emerged as a result of globalization, has revealed that globalization itself has entered a crisis. The Covid-19 pandemic has been a declaration of the failure of the global market and global organizations. The fight against the pandemic has been carried out with the resources of states instead of global alliances and private initiatives, and this process has enabled the return of nation-state power and effectiveness, which had been in decline for some time. In this context, this study aims to discuss the political and economic paradigm of globalization on the basis of recent developments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Globalization is a phenomenon that has significant effects in many areas such as socio-economic, political, cultural etc. of the last century. With globalization, consumption habits may also change. As a matter of fact, it can be stated that the effects of globalization on food security are also a subject that needs to be addressed and examined. From this point of view, the aim of this paper is to investigate the effect of globalization and economic growth on food security for MIST countries between 1970 and 2019. Food production index was taken as a food safety indicator. In empirical analysis, CADF unit root test, Durbin-Hausman cointegration test, and AMF coefficient estimator were used. As a result of the analysis, a cointegration relationship was found between globalization, economic growth and food security in MIST countries. Furthermore, while economic growth has a positive and statistically significant effect on food security, globalization has a statistically significant but negative effect on food security.

Along with the globalization process, China has achieved high levels of economic growth rates. China, which is among the developing countries, is among the prominent economies in the world with its population and economic potential. Economic growth is among the most important macroeconomic targets in national economies. Sustainability of this target is of great importance. In this respect, green growth has become very important in terms of both sustainable economic growth and economic development. In this study, the relationship between annual financial development, renewable energy and economic integration variables and green growth in the 1990-2019 sample period of the Chinese economy is investigated. Fourier ARDL method was used as empirical method. Empirical findings have shown that there is a long-run relationship. According to both long- and short-term coefficient estimation findings, it has been revealed that financial development has a positive effect on green growth, while renewable energy consumption and economic integration have a negative effect on green growth in China.

In the globalization literature, efficiency and compensation hypotheses are widely discussed and analyzed empirically. In this study, validity of the efficiency and compensation hypotheses for twelve different public expenditures is tested. Analyzes related with five different globalization indexes (general globalization, economic globalization, political globalization, cultural globalization and social globalization index) were performed. The period after the collapse of the Berlin wall when globalization was most intense (the post-1989 period, which is called the hyper-globalization period) was chosen as the period of the study, and the analyzes were carried out using unbalanced panel data set and two-way fixed effect models for the sample of developing countries. In addition, in the models of the study all variables were used in their stationary state. According to the results obtained from the analyzes performed for the five different types of globalization, statistically significant positive coefficients were intensely obtained and therefore, it was observed that the compensation hypothesis was predominantly valid.

Population growth, urbanization, industrialization and technological developments have an important place in natural resource consumption. These developments are among the main dynamics in terms of economic growth in national economies. However, with the related developments, an increase in environmental degradation has been observed. Determining the cause of these deteriorations is considered to be important for increasing environmental quality and ensuring sustainable economic development. In the study, the determinants of ecological footprint in ASEAN-5 countries consisting of Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore and the Philippines are investigated. Westerlund (2006) panel cointegration test is used as an empirical method, which considers cross-sectional dependence. The period of 1980-2018, in which the globalization process generally deepened, is chosen as the sample period. General globalization index, economic growth, energy consumption and ecological footprint variables of ASEAN-5 countries are used. Empirical results reveal the existence of a cointegration relationship between these variables in ASEAN-5 countries. Augmented Mean Group (AMG) is applied as the panel cointegration coefficient estimator. AMG findings show that globalization, economic growth and energy consumption increase the ecological footprint of ASEAN-5 countries across the panel. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of globalization on economic growth in the member countries of the European Union. For this reason, the growth model that includes the factors of globalization, financial development, capital, urbanization and savings for the period of 1995-2019 was used in the study. The stationarity levels of the variables were investigated with the PANIC unit root test and determined to be I(1). After determining the cointegration between the series, the long-term estimates of the variables were made by using the AMG, DOLS and FMOLS estimation methods. Finally, the causal relationship between the series was carried out with the Dumitrescu-Hurlin panel causality test. Empirical findings show that the globalization positively affects economic growth throughout the panel. In addition, the existence of bidirectional causality between globalization and economic growth was determined. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The environmental degradation process has accelerated globally with the industrial revolution and the developments that threatened environmental sustainability afterwards. The fact that the environmental degradation process is felt worldwide, especially with global warming and climate change, has increased the number of studies on the determinants of environmental degradation. In this study, the impact of foreign direct investments, economic growth, and economic globalization on the environment and the validity of the pollution halo hypothesis are investigated for Turkey. For this purpose, analyses are carried out with the KRLS approach, which is a machine learning method, using annual data between 1970 and 2018. As a result of the analyses, it has been determined that (i) foreign direct investments have a negative (positive) impact on the ecological footprint (environmental quality) and therefore the pollution halo hypothesis is valid; (ii) economic growth has a positive (negative) impact on the ecological footprint (environmental quality); and (iii) economic globalization has a negative (positive) impact on the ecological footprint (environmental quality). Based on these results, we recommend policymakers to develop policies that can attract more foreign direct investments to Turkey and provide economic globalization, as both have positive effects on the environment, and follow more environmentally friendly policies in the process of increasing economic growth.

This study aims to determine the effect of economic and other types of globalization on the growth of the Turkish economy. The study results are crucial in terms of revealing the impact of globalization on economic growth. In the study, Turkey's economic and other globalization indices from 1970 to 2018 and GDP data were used. Since the series representing the variables are stationary at their first difference, Engle–Granger cointegration analysis was performed, and the error correction method was applied for the variables with cointegration. The causality relationships between the variables were examined with the Toda–Yamamoto method. According to the analysis, cointegration has been determined between economic globalization and economic growth. There is unidirectional causality from economic and commercial globalization to economic growth and economic growth to financial globalization and bidirectional causality between general globalization and economic growth. As a result, it has been revealed that economic globalization positively affects economic growth. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

When considered the impacts of globalization that have dominated the world on state’s economic roles for the last forty decades, very different streams of thought have developed on this subject. Notably, while neoliberal models have a critical approach to the welfare state, the other extreme views foresee that the state’s social welfare expenditures will increase due to the rise in the external risks for individuals within globalization. Thus, health spending becomes one of the thematic fields where the social welfare state is associated with globalization. Therefore, the question becomes more of an issue of how health spending is affected by increasing the integration process of countries. From this viewpoint in this study, the impact of economic, social, and political globalization on health expenditure is examined in Turkic Republics that compose Turkey, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan by using data over the period 2000-2016. As a result of the analysis using the panel ARDL method, it was found that economic and social globalization increases health expenditures while political globalization decreases.

The aim of this study is to determine whether overall globalization, economic globalization, political globalization and social globalization have an impact on economic growth in the example of selected Sub-Saharan African countries. In this context, dynamic panel data analysis was carried out using the two-step system GMM using the data set between the years 1990-2019 belonging to 34 selected Sub-Saharan African countries. In the econometric model, 4 different econometric models were created by using to labor force participation rate, the ratio of total natural resource revenues to gross national product, gross fixed capital formation and the KOF globalization index, economic globalization index, social globalization index and political globalization index, respectively. As a result of the econometric analysis, globalization, economic globalization and social globalization have positive effects on the economic growth of 34 selected Sub-Saharan African countries; However, it has been concluded that social globalization has a negative effect on economic growth.

Küreselleşme ve ekonomik büyüme arasındaki ilişkinin ortaya konulmasının taşıdığı önem bakımından bu çalışmada, küreselleşme ve ekonomik büyüme arasındaki nedensellik ilişkisi ve yönü, seçilmiş 88 ülke için 2000-2016 dönemi yıllık verileri kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmada yöntem olarak Dumitrescu ve Hurlin panel nedensellik testi kullanılmıştır. Analiz sonucunda elde edilen bulgulara göre ekonomik büyüme ve ekonomik küreselleşme, ekonomik büyüme ve sosyal küreselleşme, ekonomik büyüme ve teknolojik küreselleşme arasında çift yönlü nedensellik ilişkisi mevcut iken; ekonomik büyümeden genel küreselleşmeye ve ekonomik büyümeden politik küreselleşmeye doğru tek yönlü nedensellik ilişkisi olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

In the process of economic globalization, integration into the world network depends on the implementation of the necessary liberalization policies. The first leg of liberalization is the liberalization movements in foreign trade. With the commercial liberalization, it is aimed to achieve global integration by aiming to remove the controls on the goods and service markets. One of the indicators of how integrated a country is in the world trade network is expressed by the concept of trade openness. The trade openness ratio, which is calculated by dividing the total trade volume by GDP, is an indicator of how important international trade is in an economy. This ratio is also accepted as the degree of globalization of an economy. The main target expected in the axis of globalization and trade emerges as economic growth. Countries that stand out with their performance in terms of integration into the global economy, trade liberalization and economic growth are called emerging market economies. The study examines the effect of trade openness on economic growth in 18 emerging market economies for the period 1992-2015. Gross fixed capital investments and foreign direct investment data are also included in the analysis. In the investigation of the stationarity of the series in the analysis, II. generation panel unit root tests were used. The Emirmahmutoğlu-Köse panel causality test, which also considers the cross-sectional dependence, was preferred in the investigation of the causality relationship between the series. Panel data analysis results show that all variables positively affect economic growth in emerging market economies. The causality test results show that there is a bidirectional relationship between the variables of trade openness, gross fixed capital investments and economic growth. It has been concluded that there is unidirectional causality from economic growth to foreign direct investments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Especially in the post-1980 period, with the developments in information and communication technologies in the world, the boundaries between the countries have disappeared and globalization has started to be experienced intensively. This intensity in globalization provides significant advantages to some sectors and has disadvantages for some. In this study, the effects of globalization in economic, political and social fields on defense industry expenditures in Turkey were analyzed within the frame of VAR model by using data from the period of 1974-2015. The results of cointegration indicate a long-term relationship between variables, while the results of causality test show that political and economic globalization is the cause of defense expenditures.

Recently, the interest in the problems caused by growth-oriented policy implications which are at the center of macroeconomic policies has increased gradually. Revealing the background dynamics of this interest that is increasing due to both economic and political, social and cultural factors, is impossible to discuss without taking the effects of the phenomenon of globalization. Therefore, together with the globalization that has permeated to all strata of society since the end of the 20th century, the literature which emphasises changing of environmental balance has become prominent. In this context, it he study, environmental Kuznets hypothesis is tested by taking economic, political and social globalization indicators into account for Turkic Republics that compose of Turkey, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, with panel ARDL methods for 1991-2014 period. The results show that the negative impact of the economic growth on carbon emission arises the per capita income level of nearly $2,830, and after that there is a N-shaped relationship between them. In addition, the findings reveal that political and social globalization reduce carbon emissions while it increases economic globalization and energy use. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Globalization, which affects every aspect of societies also have an impact on the environment. In recent years, it has become more important for countries to measure and evaluate their environmental performance as environmental problems and consequently environmental awareness increases. In this context, the KOF Globalization Index published by the Swiss Economic Institute, which is composed of economic, social and political globalization dimensions and The Environmental Performance Index (EPI) published by the Yale Environmental Law and Policy Centre, which measures the environmental performance extensively were used to determine the impact of globalization on the environmental performance of countries. In this study, where the gross domestic product was included as a control variable, analyses were made with the data of 174 countries in which all three variables have common data. Multiple regression analysis by employing structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to test the relationships in the model. According to the results of the analysis, social and political dimensions of globalization have positive effects on environmental performance. The impact of economic globalization on environmental performance is not significant. Besides, GDP strengthens the positive relationship between political globalization and environmental performance, while weakening the positive relationship between social globalization and environmental performance.

Income inequality has been increasing since the early 1980s. The fact that increasing income inequality and increasing economic globalization coincide with the same period have exacerbated the debate about the relationship between globalization and income inequality. The aim of this study is to reveal the relationship between economic globalization and income inequality in emerging market economies.In the study, a panel data model was formed by using the data of 13 emerging market economies between 1994 and 2014 and the relationship between income inequality and globalization is estimated by PooledMeanGroup (PMG) method. According to model results, it is seen that economic globalization increases income inequality in emerging market economies [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study examines the effect of economic globalization on female labour participation for sixteen developing Asian countries in line with 1990-2017 yearly observations by using panel cointegration and causality analyses. Accordingly, the panel cointegration test results show that there is a long run relationship between female labour force participation and foreign direct investment, trade openness and urbanization. The long run coefficient indicates that trade openness has negative and significant impact on female labour participation, whereas foreign direct investment has negative and insignificant impact. On the other hand, the panel causality test results reveal that there is a bilateral causal relationship between female labour participation and foreign direct investment and trade openness. The urbanization process in the Asian countries, where are still largely r ural and the most crowded countries in the world, has no impact on female labour participation. The findings provide important contributions to the evaluation of employment policies in these countries in terms of equal opportunities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Neo-Liberal yaklaşıma göre, piyasa mekanizmasına bırakılan ekonomik küreselleşme dünya refahınıartırmaktadır. Ne var ki, küresel yoksulluk gibi sosyal sorunların ekonomik küreselleşmeye eşlik ettiği gözlenmektedir. Bu çalışmada, ekonomik küreselleşmeye eşlik eden küresel yoksulluk gibi uluslararasısosyal sorunlar ve bu sorunlara çözüm arayan ILO ve BM gibi kuruluşların çalışmalarıana hatlarıyla ele alınmış, bunların yeterlilik düzeyi tartışılmışve bir uluslararasısosyal düzenin oluşturulmasıgereği üzerinde durulmuştur. Çalışmanın hazırlanmasında birincil ve ikincil kaynaklar taranmış; yorumlayıcı, analitik ve ampirik yöntemlerden yeri geldikçe yararlanılmıştır. Çalışmada, ekonomik küreselleşme sürecine dünya barışıiçin önemli olan küresel yoksulluk gibi sosyal sorunların eşlik ettiği, ancak uluslararasıdüzeyde sorunun çözümü için yeterli önlemler alınmadığısonucuna varılmıştır. Bu nedenle, dünya barışıile istikrarının tesisi ve korunmasıiçin uluslararasıdüzeyde önemli olan aktörler ve kamuoyunun söz konusu sorunların çözümlenmesine aktif olarak katılmasıve sorumluluk üstlenmesi gerekmektedir.

The worldwide use of International Financial Reporting Standards which is posed by economic globalization as a need led to comparisons between these standards and domestic accounting standards which were used before IFRS. This study aims to compare the relationship between stock returns and financial ratios that are calculated according to IFRS or domestic accounting standards. For this purpose, data of 141 companies between 1999/9 and 2003/6 terms according to domestic accounting standards and data of 182 companies between 2005/9 and 2011/6 term according to IFRS are used and panel data analysis is performed by these data. Results of the analysis reveal that although there is a statistically significant relationship between stock returns and financial ratios calculated according to domestic accounting standards, there is no relationship according to IFRS.

In this study, the future of Free Zones has been studied by considering the effects of globalization on Free Zones with special reference to Turkey. Evaluation of free zones has been summarized in main lines from free ports to free production zones in the 1960s. Critics about those enclaves such as encouraging import, tax losses, unsatisfying results and working conditions have been detailed. Consequently, it can be said that globalization, providing free trade of goods and services, may eliminate attractiveness of privileged area practices such as free zones in developing countries and attention to these zones will decrease because of failing to satisfy. For Turkey, in addition to those results improvements in European Union process and decrease in privileges means that these zones lose their importance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage was adopted by UNESCO in 2003 with the thought that intangible cultural heritage disappears step by step because of globalization and industrialization. Turkey by ratifying the Convention in 2006 has closely followed the implementation process of the Convention. State Parties have prepared national inventories, established the List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in Need of Urgent Safeguarding and The Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity and some State Parties created Living Human Treasures Programme. However, important steps have been taken toward implementing the Convention, some problems still arise in the implementation process.
