Abstract

Transperancy is a sine-qua-non of "perfect competition ", which lias traditionally been a keystone of mainstream economic instruction. During the past two decades, rapid developments in information and information-dissemination technologies have increased both the availability of information and the importance of "knowledge" as an asset; and meanwhile a rising wave of globalization has intensified demand for increased transparency. Globalization has increased and popularized demand for transparency ironicaly. New technologies luive provided opportunities for enluinced transparency, have developed new means of achieving more extensive transparency and luive reduced the cost of attaining it. However, as enhanced communication and infonnation-dissemination can not, by themselves, guarantee the existence of perfect competition, so too there are no guarantees tluit the increased opportunities deriving from these technological developments would automatically enlumce transparency. This study cams at questioning the assymetries between increased opportunities for transparency and de-facto transparency. Developments in digital and worldwide web technologies luive enhanced transparency, but meanwhile, paradoxically, corruption luis become more organized. Although Turkey's rank in the Corruption Perceptions Index produced by Transparency International seems to luive gotten better, there luive been no significant improvements in terms of grade-points she is given.

Özet

Saydamlık Tam Rekabet Koşullarının (TRK) bir sine qua non'u, yani olmazsa olmazıdır. Yerleşik ekonomi anlayışı ve eğitimi (mainstream economics) için de, TRK bir sine qua nondur. Bu durumda bir yandan ekonomi bilimi diğer yandan ekonomi eğitimi eleştirilmekte iken, son yirmi yıl içinde bilgi teknolojilerinde gerçekleşen gelişmeler ve ortaya çıkan olanaklar bilgi ve bilgilenmenin önemini son derece arttırmış bulunmaktadır. Küreselleşme süreci (ironik bir biçimde) saydamlık (şeffaflık) taleplerini de gündeme getirmiş ve arttınnıştır. Yeni teknolojiler yepyeni saydcunlık olanakları sağlamış, büyük ölçüde geliştirmiş ve (saydam olmanın) maliyetlerini düşürmüştür. Ancak iletişim ve bilgilenme olanaklarının artması tam rekabet koşullarının garcuıtisi olmadığı gibi, artan olanakların saydamlığı kendiliğinden arttıracağı da kesin değildir. Bu çalışına artan, çeşitlenen saydamlık olanaklarıyla de facto saydamlık arasındaki asimetriyi sorgulama amacına yöneliktir. Dünyamızda gelişen bilgisayar ve internet teknolojileri sayesinde saydamlık olanakları hızla artarken yolsuzluk (corruption) girişim ve eylemleri de daha organize İmle gelmiştir. Son 11 yılda Türkiyenin Uluslararası Saydamlık Örgütünün Yolsuzluk Endeksinde (Corruption Perceptions Index) ülke-sıralamasında aldığı yer her ne kadar bir iyiye gitmişse de, bizatihi endeksin Türkiye'ye verdiği puan cinsinden durumun kaydadeğer bir gelişme içermediği gözlenmektedir.
