Abstract

Considering official development assistance, remittances, foreign direct investment, trade openness, and private capital flows as international financial relations, this paper aims at evaluating the influences of concentration of international financial relations on the gender inequality. To this end, a panel dataset, which consists of eighty countries, and covers the time span 2010-2017, are employed. Empirical findings of the paper imply that the concentration of financial relations generally promotes the gender inequality. It is concluded that official development assistances, remittances and trade openness have negative influences on both the gender development index and the gender inequality index. In addition to the above-mentioned three variables, it is found out that foreign direct investments negatively affect the gender inequality index.

Özet

Resmi kalkınma yardımları, göçmen transferleri, doğrudan yabancı yatırımlar, ticari açıklık ve özel sermaye akımlarını uluslararası finansal ilişkiler olarak ele alan bu çalışma, finansal ilişkilerdeki yoğunlaşmanın cinsiyet eşitsizliği üzerindeki etkilerini değerlendirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu bağlamda, seksen ülkeden oluşan ve 2010-2017 dönemini kapsayan bir panel veri setinden yararlanılmıştır. Çalışmadan elde edilen ampirik bulgular, finansal ilişkilerde meydana gelen yoğunlaşmanın genel olarak cinsiyet eşitsizliğini artırdığına işaret etmektedir. Resmi kalkınma yardımları, göçmen transferleri ve ticari açıklık değişkenlerinin hem cinsiyet gelişim endeksini hem de cinsiyet eşitsizlik endeksini olumsuz etkilediği sonucuna varılmıştır. Bu üç değişkene ilave olarak doğrudan yabancı yatırımların da yalnızca cinsiyet eşitsizlik endeksi üzerinde olumsuz etkilere sahip olduğu anlaşılmıştır.
