Abstract (2. Language): 
Corruption is generally defined “as the misuse of public power for private interests” in the literature. The corruption economics has aroused as a sub-discipline of economics especially, since 1990s. Then, economists have started to analyze corruption in the frameworks of theoretical and empirical studies. Furthermore, corruption is accepted as a widespread global problem struggled by countries around the world. Due to these realities, economists try to define its determinants to suggest political challenges. In this study, corruption’s determinants classified in many categories are taken in hand in the theoretical and empirical parts. After proposing a few hypotheses related to its determinants, we interrogate the validities of them by employing panel data model. As sum, we find that only hypothesis related to the political rights is not corroborated in our model.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Özel kazanımlar uğruna verilmiş kamusal bir yetkinin ya da gücün kötüye kullanımı şeklinde tanımlanan yolsuzluk, “yolsuzluk iktisadı” adı altında 1990’lı yıllar ile birlikte İktisadın bir alt disiplini şeklinde gündeme gelmiştir. İktisadi bir sorun olan yolsuzluk, dünya genelinde ülkeler tarafından mücadele sahası oluşturulan geniş çaplı küresel bir problem olarak kabul edilmektedir. Bu nedenledir ki, iktisatçılar yolsuzluğa karşı politik mücadele reçeteleri sunarak, nedenlerini belirlemeye çalışmaktadırlar. Bu çalışmada, birçok kategori altında ele alınan yolsuzluğun belirleyenleri, teorik ve ampirik olarak incelenmektedir. Panel veri modeline dayalı olan bu çalışmada yolsuzluğun belirleyenlerine ilişkin ileri sürülen çeşitli hipotezlerin doğrulukları araştırılmaktadır. Elde edilen sonuçlar, sadece politik haklar ile ilgili hipotezin doğrulanmadığını göstermektedir.
