Abstract (2. Language): 
Bu çalışmanın amacı Türkiye’de demokratikleşme ile ekonomik büyüme arasındaki nasıl bir ilişki olduğunu incelemektir. Bu amaç çerçevesinde öncelikle literatürde yapılmış olan çalışmalar titizlikle irdelenmiştir. Türkiye için eşbütünleşme analizi ve granger nedensellik testlerinin uygulandığı ekonometrik bir çalışma yapılmış ve bu uygulamada sivil hak ve özgürlükler, politik özgürlükler ve nüfus artışı bağımsız değişken, ekonomik büyümeyi temsil eden GSYİH büyüme hızı ise bağımlı değişken olarak modelde yer almıştır. Yapılan analiz sonucunda sivil haklar, nüfus büyüme hızı, politik özgürlükler ve ekonomik büyüme arasında uzun dönemli bir ilişki tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca sivil haklar ve politik özgürlüklerden ekonomik büyümeye doğru tek yönlü bir nedensellik ilişkisinin olduğu gözlenmiştir.

Abstract (Original Language): 
The aim of this study is to analyze the relation between democratization and economic growth in Turkey, using time series data from 1980 to 2006. In the scope of this aim, an econometric application was held by using co-integration analyses and causality test in which the civil rights and liberties, politic liberties, and growth of population are added the model as an independent variables, and Gross Domestic Production (GDP) as a dependent variable. Results show that there is a long run relationship between civil rights liberties, political liberties, population growth rate and GDP growth rate. It is also found out that there is a unidirectional causality from civil rights and political liberties to GDP growth rate.
