Abstract

Green budgeting, a concept encompassing a set of fiscal policy measures and rules designed to prevent environmental problems and mitigate existing environmental damage, has recently gained attention in the public finance literature. This study aims to provide a conceptual perspective on "green budgeting" and to analyze scientific articles published in this field using bibliometric methods. It is expected that this study will serve as a reference source in the green budgeting literature, guiding future research and policies. In this context, a total of 70 scientific studies published between 1997 and 2026 on green budgeting were examined using article, review article, and early access article criteria in the Web of Science (WoS) database. Author and journal citation analyses, co-occurrence of keywords analyses, co-authorship analysis, and bibliographic coupling analyses between articles and countries were conducted with the help of the VOSviewer 1.6.18 software package. The most researched fields in green budgeting are environmental studies (32.8%), environmental sciences (30%), and green sustainable science and technology (20%). The most cited article on green budgeting is “Alternate Energy Sources and Environmental Quality: The Impact of Inflation Dynamics” by Bilal et al. (2022), which received 135 citations. France has the highest number of citations in this field with 5 articles and 252 citations, while Sweden ranks first in terms of citations per document (n=114). According to the bibliographic matching network visualization, the USA, shown as the largest node, has the highest total number of studies (10) and total connection strength (TLS=252) in green budgeting. The USA is the prominent country in terms of productivity and connection strength in the green budgeting literature.

Özet

Yeşil bütçeleme çevre sorunlarını önlemek ve mevcut çevresel zararları iyileştirmek için tasarlanmış bir dizi maliye politikası tedbiri ve kuralını ifade eden bir kavram olarak maliye literatüründe yakın dönemde ilgi çeken alanlardandır. Bu çalışma “yeşil bütçeleme” ye kavramsal bir bakış açısı sunmak ve bu alanda yayımlanan bilimsel makaleleri bibliyometrik yöntemlerle analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu çalışmanın yeşil bütçeleme literatüründe referans bir kaynak olarak gelecekte yapılacak araştırmalar ve politikalara yön vermesi beklenmektedir. Bu bağlamda, Web of Science (WoS) veritabanında makale, derleme makalesi ve erken erişim çalışması kriterleri kullanılarak yeşil bütçeleme konusunda, 1997 ile 2026 yılları arasında yayınlanmış toplam 70 bilimsel çalışma incelenmiştir. VOSviewer 1.6.18 paket programı yardımıyla yazar ve dergi atıf analizleri, kelime birlikteliği analizleri, yazar işbirlikleri ve makaleler ile ülkeler arasındaki bibliyografik eşleştirme analizleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yeşil bütçeleme konusunda en çok araştırılan alanlar; çevre çalışmaları (%32,8), çevre bilimleri (%30) ve yeşil sürdürülebilir bilim ve teknolojidir (%20). Yeşil bütçeleme konusunda en çok atıf alan makale Bilal vd. (2022) tarafından yazılan ve 135 atıf alan “Alternate Energy Sources and Environmental Quality: The İmpact of İnflation Dynamics” makalesi yeşil bütçeleme alanında en fazla atıf alan çalışma olmuştur. Bu alanda en çok atıf alan ülke 5 makale ve 252 atıfla Fransa olurken, belge başına atıf sayısıyla (n=114) İsveç birinci sırada yer almaktadır. Bibliyografik eşleşme ağ görselleştirmesine göre en büyük düğümle gösterilen ABD, yeşil bütçeleme konusunda en yüksek toplam çalışma sayısına (10) ve toplam bağlantı gücüne (TLS=252) sahip olan ülkedir. Dolayısıyla yeşil bütçeleme literatüründe verimlilik ve bağlantı gücü açısından öne çıkan ülke ABD'dir.
