Özet:

 With the increasing international trade as a result of globalization, the diversity in the product markets and service requirements increases the importance of the logistics sector. In parallel with the accelerating volume of international trade, developments in the logistics sector facilitate international trade and positively affect the competitiveness of countries with the cost advantages it provides. Developments in logistics activities also bring about an increase in the total turnover volume of the sector as well as in employment, and are an important determinant of economic growth in these aspects. The aim of this study is to empirically evaluate the relationship between road and rail passenger and freight transportation and economic growth in Turkey for the period between 2001 and 2019. In the analysis, where panel data analysis is preferred as the method, road and rail passenger and freight transportation services are used to represent the logistics sector and real GDP is used to represent economic growth. Accordingly, a reciprocal causality relationship between economic growth and road, maritime, air and rail transportation services in Turkey is determined.

 Küreselleşme sonucunda artan uluslararası ticaretle beraber, ürün piyasalarının görünümünde ve hizmet gereksiniminde yaşanan çeşitlilik, lojistik sektörünün önemini her geçen gün artırmaktadır. Hızlanan uluslararası ticaret hacmine paralel olarak, lojistik sektöründe yaşanan gelişmeler bir yandan uluslararası ticareti kolaylaştırırken, öte yandan sağladığı maliyet avantajlarıyla da ülkelerin rekabet gücünü olumlu yönde etkilemektedir. Lojistik faaliyetlerde yaşanan gelişmeler aynı zamanda sektörün toplam ciro hacmi ve yanı sıra istihdam artışlarını da beraberinde getirirken, bu yönleriyle ekonomik büyümenin de önemli bir belirleyicisi durumundadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiyedeki kara ve demiryolu yolcu ve yük taşımacılığı ile ekonomik büyüme arasındaki ilişkiyi 2001 - 2019 arası dönem için ampirik olarak değerlendirmektir. Yöntem olarak panel veri analizinin tercih edildiği çalışmanın analiz kısmında; lojistik sektörünü temsilen, karayolu ve demiryolu yolcu ve eşya taşımaulaştırma hizmetleri, ekonomik büyümeyi temsilen de reel GSYH kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen analiz sonuçlarına göre; Türkiyede ekonomik büyüme ve karayolu, denizyolu, havayolu ve demiryolu ulaştırma hizmetleri arasında karşılıklı bir nedensellik ilişkisinin bulunduğu belirlenmiştir.
