Özet:

 The rapid advancement of digital technologies has significantly transformed the global economy. Digitalization is considered one of the most substantial developments in the economy since the industrial revolution. The proliferation of the internet, mobile devices, artificial intelligence, and other digital technologies has profoundly changed business models, consumption habits, and economic activities. This study examines the impacts of the digital economy on taxation, social welfare and sustainability. The rise of the digital economy has challenged traditional economic concepts, questioned tax systems, and raised critical questions about its effects on social welfare. Opportunities presented by the digital economy include global access, innovation, optimization of business processes through data analytics, and artificial intelligence. However, the growth of the digital economy also brings several threats. Taxation challenges, cybersecurity threats, unemployment, and inequality are among the issues highlighting the negative aspects of the digital economy. Tax evasion and abuse risks complicate taxation policies and lead to the erosion of the tax base. Cybersecurity threats increase the risk of data breaches and misuse of personal and commercial data. Unemployment and inequality are related to the changes in the labor market caused by digitalization. The growth of the digital economy may lead to monopolistic power for large tech companies, reducing competition and potentially excluding small businesses from the market. The data-driven nature of the digital economy raises new issues concerning privacy and ethics. Cultural and social structures are also affected, necessitating a balanced digital transformation strategy for the digital economy to contribute to social progress. Economic imbalances increase due to inequalities in access to digital technologies, complicating the integration of developing countries into the digital economy. The rapid development of the digital economy necessitates new legal frameworks and the updating of existing regulations. The impacts on social welfare systems include the erosion of tax revenues and changes in the labor market due to digitalization, leading to the weakening of social welfare systems. For the sustainability of the digital economy, it is essential to develop environmentally friendly technologies and increase energy efficiency. The OECD and the EU have been working on solutions to these issues at international and European levels. Comprehensive and flexible policies must be developed to best utilize the opportunities offered by the digital economy and effectively address emerging challenges.

 Dijital teknolojilerin hızla gelişmesi, dünya ekonomisinde köklü bir dönüşümü getirmiştir. Dijitalleşme, sanayi devriminden sonra ekonomideki en büyük gelişmelerden biri olarak kabul edilmektedir. İnternet, mobil cihazlar, yapay zekâ ve diğer dijital teknolojilerin yaygınlaşmasıyla birlikte iş modelleri, tüketim alışkanlıkları ve ekonomik faaliyetler önemli ölçüde değişmiştir. Bu çalışma, dijital ekonominin vergilendirme, sosyal refah ve sürdürülebilirlik üzerindeki etkilerini incelemektedir. Dijital ekonominin yükselişi, geleneksel ekonomi anlayışlarını zorlamış, vergilendirme sistemlerini sorgulatmış ve sosyal refaha olan etkileriyle ilgili kritik soruları gündeme getirmiştir. Dijital ekonominin sunduğu fırsatlar arasında küresel erişim, inovasyon, veri analitiği ve yapay zekâ ile iş süreçlerini optimize etme bulunmaktadır. Ancak, dijital ekonominin büyümesi aynı zamanda bazı tehditleri de beraberinde getirmiştir. Vergilendirme zorlukları, siber güvenlik tehditleri, işsizlik ve eşitsizlik gibi sorunlar, dijital ekonominin olumsuz yanlarını ortaya koymaktadır. Vergi kaçakçılığı ve istismar riski, dijital ekonominin vergilendirme politikalarını zorlaştırmakta ve vergi tabanının aşınmasına yol açmaktadır. Siber güvenlik tehditleri, kişisel ve ticari verilerin sızma veya kötüye kullanma riskini artırırken; dijitalleşmenin iş gücü piyasasında oluşturduğu değişimlerle ilişkili olarak işsizlik ve eşitsizlik de artmaktadır. Dijital ekonominin büyümesi, büyük teknoloji şirketlerinin piyasa üzerinde monopol gücü elde etmesine yol açarak rekabeti azaltabilir ve küçük işletmelerin piyasadan dışlanmasına neden olabilir. Dijital ekonominin veri odaklı yapısı, gizlilik ve etik açısından da yeni sorunlar ortaya çıkarmaktadır. Kültürel ve sosyal yapılar üzerindeki etkiler, dijitalleşmenin toplumsal ilerlemeye katkıda bulunabilmesi için dengeli bir dijital dönüşüm stratejisi gerektirmektedir. Ekonomik dengesizlikler, dijital teknolojilere erişimdeki eşitsizlikler nedeniyle artmakta ve gelişmekte olan ülkelerin dijital ekonomiye entegrasyonunu zorlaştırmaktadır. Dijital ekonominin hızlı gelişimi, mevcut hukuki düzenlemelerin yetersiz kalmasına ve yeni yasal çerçeveler oluşturulması gerekliliğine yol açmaktadır. Dijital ekonominin sosyal refah sistemlerine etkileri, vergi gelirlerindeki azalma ve dijitalleşmenin iş gücü piyasasında oluşturduğu değişimler nedeniyle sosyal refah sistemlerinin aşınmasına yol açmaktadır. Dijital ekonominin sürdürülebilirliği için çevre dostu teknolojilerin geliştirilmesi ve enerji verimliliğinin artırılması gerekmektedir. Ekonomik İşbirliği ve Kalkınma Örgütü OECD ve Avrupa Birliği AB, bu sorunlara çözüm bulmak amacıyla uluslararası ve Avrupa düzeyinde çalışmalar yürütmektedir. Dijital ekonominin sunduğu fırsatları en iyi şekilde değerlendirmek ve ortaya çıkan zorluklara karşı etkili çözümler geliştirmek için kapsamlı ve esnek politikalar oluşturulmalıdır.
