OECD TURKIYE YARDIM KONSORSIYUMU 1962 (OECD Financial Aid Consortium to Turkey 1962)

Turkish Abstract: Bu calisma uzun zaman once yazilmis olmasina ragmen bugun dahi onemini korumaktadir. Her seyden once geleneksel olmayan bir ulke finansmanini konu almaktadir. 1959 yilindan basliyarak OECD, bugunku ulke politikalarina yon vermek kaydiyla calisan IMF gibi kuruluslardan biri olmamasina karsin bir ulkeye yardim etmeyi denemistir. Bu finansmana karar verilirken, bu kurulusun yeterli olcude ekonomileri analiz edebilme gucune sahip olmadigi dusunulmektedir. Daha cok siyasal bir guduyle yapilan bu yardim, bugun IMF gibi kuruluslara yapilan ‘insansiz cozumler uretme’ elestirisine konu olmamistir. Bilindigi gibi IMF ve benzeri kuruluslar, ulkenin gelecekteki politikalarini yonlendirmek kosulu ile ulkeye ‘yardim’ yapmaktdirlar. Cogu kez, populist olmayan bu politikalar uluslar ve yoneticiler tarafindan sikca elestirilmektedir. Bu calisma, bu geleneksel olmayan finansmani ve sonuclarini incelemektedir. English Abstract: This working paper was written long ago. However, the study is a very interesting one even today as it displays an unusual debt refinancing and funding of a country through OECD. Today, more developed agencies like IMF are the prime leaders in any country debt restructuring cases. Nevertheless most of them are criticized because their solutions are so mathematical and often results in non-populist policies. The case under examination was an exception to this and OECD members were acting more politically to help out a member country rather than economical motives. The OECD normally didn’t have such detailed analysis capacity of economy and prescribe the policies. Thus, they put at work whatever knowledge they have. This study examines this case and the results of this funding.
