Macroeconomic Effects Of Information And Communication Technologies In Turkey And Other Oecd Member CountriesKaragol, Burak 01 April 2012 (has links) (PDF)
This thesis investigates the effects of ICT on economic growth in Turkey and other
OECD member countries. After discussing the theoretical relationships between ICT
usage and economic growth, we test the positive impact of ICT revolution on
economic growth econometrically. In the empirical part of the study, we perform
panel data analyses by employing data sets that belong to 30 OECD member
countries for 1999-2008 period as well as carrying out time series analyses for only
Turkey by using data between 1980 and 2009. We find out that ICT usage and
production have a positive significant effect on economic growth in OECD case.
However, due to some methodological difficulties and insufficiency of critical mass
regarding ICT area and complementary physical and social infrastructures in
Turkey, we cannot find any significant relationship between ICT and economic
growth for Turkish case.
