Abstract

The evolution of environmental thinking has become apparent in economics in parallel with the increase in industrialization and urbanization, although environment and natural resources matters have a long history in its literature. To this end, environmental economics and natural resources economics have started to become widespread fields as subdisciplines of economics. On the other hand, ecological economics that primarily focuses on resources and environment in a broad perspective has emerged in 1980s. In this framework, the important efforts, such as alternative growth models and inclusion of ecological constraints into IS-LM analyses, have strenghtened the underpinnings of ecological economics. Thus, considering gradually increasing importance of environmental issues in economics, this study addresses ecological economics approach by comparing with main stream economics from various aspects, as well as ecological macroeconomic modellings and implications.

Özet

Çevre ve doğal kaynaklar sorunu iktisat literatüründe uzun bir geçmişe sahip olsa da artan sanayileşme ve kentleşmeye paralel olarak son elli yıldır daha çok dikkat çeken bir konu haline gelmiştir ve iktisatta çevreci bir dönüşüm süreci başlamıştır. Bu doğrultuda geleneksel iktisat anlayışına bağlı olarak çevre ekonomisi ve doğal kaynaklar ekonomisi gibi alt disiplinler oluşturulmuştur. 1980’li yıllarda ise çevre ve doğal kaynakları daha geniş bir perspektifte öncelikli odak noktası haline getiren ekolojik iktisat akımı doğmuştur. Bu çerçevede alternatif büyüme modellerinin oluşturulması ve ekolojik kısıtların IS-LM analizine dahil edilmesi gibi önemli gayretler ekolojik makro iktisat yaklaşımının temellerini zenginleştirmiştir. Bu çalışma, literatürde giderek artan önemine binaen, ekolojik iktisat yaklaşımı ve bu yaklaşımın temel odak noktalarını ana akım iktisat ile karşılaştırmakta ve ekolojik makro iktisadi modellemeler ve bunların çıkarımlarını ele almaktadır.
