Abstract

The Two Faces of Unionist Movements: The Analysis of its Impact on the Economic Growth in OECD Countries Even though identifying the causes of economic growth has been the subject of numerous empirical studies, little is known about the impact of unionist movements on differences in the process of economic growth between the countries. Besides, there is still no consensus on how unions affect a state’s economy. Therefore, in this study the impact of unionist movements on economic growth in 33 OECD countries from 1970 to 2011 is examined by using panel data analysis. The results of the analysis show that there are both cointegration and causality relationship between the unionist movements and economic growth. In addition, it is found that an increase in unionist movements would impact the process of economic growth negatively

Özet

İktisadi büyümenin nedenlerini açıklamayı konu edinen çok sayıda uygulamalı çalısma olmasına ragmen, ülkeler arasında iktisadi büyüme sürecindeki farklılıklar üzerinde yarattıgı etkiler nedeniyle sendikal hareketler hakkında çok az sey bilinmektedir. Ayrıca, sendikaların ülke ekonomisini nasıl etkiledigi konusunda da hala bir konsensüs saglanamamıstır. Bu amaçla, çalısmada sendikal hareketlerin iktisadi büyüme üzerindeki etkileri 33 OECD ülkesinde 1970–2011 dönemi için panel veri analizleri kullanılarak arastırılmıstır. Analiz sonuçları, sendikal hareketler ile iktisadi büyüme arasında hem esbütünlesme ve hem de nedensellik iliskisi oldugunu göstermistir. laveten, sendikal hareketlerde meydana gelen bir artısın iktisadi büyüme sürecini negatif yönlü etkileyecegi de tespit edilmistir.
