For states to fulfill their duties, taxpayers must accurately declare their taxable income and pay their taxes in full and on time. However, maintaining this process as envisaged is not always possible. What hinders the process is taxpayers’ tax avoidance and tax evasion behaviors, and occasionally the failure of governments to design tax systems successfully. Since the existence of states and taxes, much research has been done and continues to be done to detect and eliminate these problems. In this context, the first study to theoretically investigate individuals’ decisions to evade taxes using the economic model belongs to Allingham and Sandmo (1972), and the first study to investigate tax compliance with an applied method (i.e., the experimental method) belongs to Friedland, Maital and Rutenberg (1978), both of which are considered pioneering studies in their field.The survey and experimental methods are both quantitative methods and are seen to be primarily used in studies on tax compliance. The questionnaire method is a common well-known method for researchers, while the experimental method is a relatively lesser-known method regarding tax compliance. The survey method is noteworthily the one used the most in tax compliance studies conducted in Turkey. Comprehensive studies are found in the international literature to consist of both the survey and experimental methods, with the experimental studies from Secilmis (2010) and Arıman (2020) being rare studies on taxation in Turkey. This study aims to provide information about experimental studies and to contribute to the Turkish literature in order to increase both the quantity and quality of the experimental studies carried out in Turkey on tax compliance.Students are primarily involved in experiments, and whether or not students are representative of taxpayers is a crucial issue of debate (Harrison &amp; List, 2004, p. 1016). A laboratory experiment was conducted to compare the behaviors of student and non-student subjects regarding tax compliance. The findings show the students’ behavioral responses to be essentially the same as those of the non-students in the same experiments (Alm, Bloomquist, &amp; McKee, 2015, p. 1183).This study has conducted a literature review and provided a summary of the studies that have been carried out on taxes in Turkey using the survey method. The study then presents a detailed literature review of the experimental studies that have been carried out with students. The findings from the experimental studies mostly state increases in tax rates to reduce tax compliance, increases in audit rates to increase tax compliance, increases in the level at which taxpayers trust the tax administration to increase tax compliance, men to have lower tax compliance levels than women, and individual tax compliance levels to be similar for those in the same social group.&nbsp;Another remarkable finding is that behavioral theories and factors such as prospect theory have also been included in tax compliance experiments.The national and international literature is full of studies on tax compliance that have used the survey method. However, the studies carried out using experimental methods on this subject are notably pretty weak in the literature of Turkey compared to the international literature. This study was carried out as a literature review and is expected to contribute to Turkey’s existing literature. Meanwhile, some problems can be encountered, such as the cost of establishing a laboratory in order to conduct laboratory experiments, the difficulties un using the experimental design and in identifying and reaching subjects suitable for a study, and the lack of a sufficient number of guiding studies in Turkey regarding behavioral finance. Despite all these shortcomings, applying experimental methods in tax studies that are planned to be carried out in Turkey can evidently make significant contributions to the literature.&nbsp;

With regard to the special consumption tax (SCT) applied to automobiles, the value of the automobile and the engine cylinder volume are used as taxation measures. The motor vehicle tax also uses the same measures, in addition to vehicle age. Due to the decrease in collected taxes, a law was enacted in Turkey in 2019 that authorized the government to borrow an additional 75 billion Turkish Lira to meet public expenditures. The same law also introduced an expense restriction to the income tax law regarding the evaluation and depreciation automobiles with regard to all SCTs and value-added taxes. While the value of used cars is expected to decrease as they get older, their worth has actually increased due to new application since the beginning of 2020. Automobile values increased more, even ignoring the increase in exchange rates. The fluctuation in foreign exchange in the last months of 2021 had an accelerating effect on vehicle value increases. The quarantines imposed due to COVID-19, with the restrictions on the use of public transport leading people to acquire personal vehicles and thus increasing the demand. In 2020, motor vehicle imports increased by 52.7% compared to the previous year, with new vehicle sales also increasing by 55% in the same year. Due to the motor vehicle tax and SCT applications, people have turned to cars with an engine cylinder volume under 1,600 cm3 in order to pay a lower tax rate. Of the registered vehicle stock in Turkey, 92.64% consist of vehicles with low cylinder volume size. In 2020, used car ownership changed 10 times more often compared to new cars, while 2021 saw a 7% decrease in used car sales. When analyzing the data for the first six months of 2022, a decreasing trend is seen for new vehicle sales. This situation reveals the onetime SCT revenues regarding an automobile’s initial registration to also decrease.Due to automobiles being durable consumer goods and used vehicles being in demand, the taxes (SCT) that cause a higher price regarding initial registration are reflected onto the next owner through the exchange mechanism. Because automobile depreciation values do not decrease due to restrictions on the expenses of automobiles purchased for commercial purposes, vehicles started being supplied to the second-hand market at higher prices. As a result of the increase in the SCT and restrictions on expenditures, new vehicle purchases have lost their attractiveness to businesses. This situation has increased the demand for second-hand vehicles and thus caused their prices to rise. The real appreciation trend of vehicles in the second-hand market and the upward movement in exchange rates have made automobiles an investment tool, and this in turn has led to an increase in demand for new automobiles. Car ownership is becoming more and more difficult for people with average incomes. Tax applications have reached the unavoidable point of causing capitalization with regard to used cars.The main purpose of the special consumption tax in Turkey is to increase public revenues. Compared to European countries, Turkey is different in that carbon emissions are not used as a criterion for taxation. The applied tax rates can reach astronomical rates when compared to peer countries. In addition, the value-added tax as a result of to tax practices has also been calculated with regard to the special consumption tax, thus increasing the tax burden. Due to the reflected price increase, a low-rate SCT has become inapplicable. In addition to the fact that vehicle prices result in social injustice, the facts that savings are directed to used cars, which do not contribute to value-added production, and that businesses have to allocate more resources to the cars they need have also increased the need for working capital and resulted in macroeconomic losses. Because the purpose of the SCT is to increase public revenues, raising the same tax by increasing the motor vehicle tax, which is applied using similar measures while lacking any corresponding capitalization effect, will stop the astronomical rise in automobile prices and bring them to a reasonable level. When considering 2021 data, the average annual increase of 2,571 TL per motor vehicle will cause a 40%-66% decrease in vehicles’ market value. If the useful life of motor vehicles is assumed to be 25 years, the amount to be paid in 50 installments corresponds to around 20% of the lowest new automobile price. Although no change will be seen in terms of tax revenues, transferring the tax burden from an indirect tax to a wealth tax will ensure tax justice and terminate the practice that causes income distribution inequality.&nbsp;

Since the start of the Industrial Revolution in the second half of the 18th century, continual technological developments have increased the use of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas. This situation has led to an increase in greenhouse gas emissions and the onset of global warming. In order to limit and/or reduce the increase in greenhouse gas emissions, many conventions and protocols have been prepared, in particular the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Kyoto Protocol, and the Paris Climate Accords. As one of the most important initiatives for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, the Paris Climate Accords aim to limit the increase in global average temperatures to below 2°C, keeping it as close as possible to 1.5°C. However, achieving these targets will require a great deal of effort, as the amount of carbon emissions the atmosphere can absorb without leading to excessive global warming is limited.In this framework, the balance between the amount of carbon emissions released into the atmosphere and the carbon sinks that absorb these emissions has brought the concept of a global carbon budget to the agenda. The income portion of the concept of a carbon budget, which is calculated using the income–expense balance metaphor for the financial budget, consists of the emissions arising from fossil fuels, industry, and land-use change, while the expenses portion consists of atmospheric growth, ocean sinks, land sinks, and cement carbonation. The carbon budget deficit that emerges in this context is the amount that carbon sinks (i.e., budget expenditures) are unable to absorb from the carbon emissions (i.e., budget revenue). Therefore, implementing a global carbon budget that has more carbon sinks than the amount of emissions going to the atmosphere will assist in staying below the 1.5°C-2°C temperatures increase limit detailed in the Paris Climate Accords.The literature on the global carbon budget generally suggests policies for reducing carbon emissions and examines the distribution of the carbon budget among countries, as well as the importance of the budget’s components and its harmony with the Paris Climate Accords. However, studies are also found stating that the sources that make up the global carbon budget are essentially uncertain, and therefore the carbon budget may be uncertain and inconsistent. Thus far, no studies are reported in the literature to have examined the global carbon budget specific to Turkiye. Therefore, this study is expected to contribute to the literature in this way.This study evaluates the greenhouse gas reduction scenarios that are created through the possible policies Turkiye can implement within the framework of the Paris Climate Accords as well as Turkiye’s share of the global carbon budget. Turkiye’s carbon emissions began to increase through industrialization in the 1990s. This increase continued in the 2000s, but decreased in 2001 and 2008 due to the effects from financial crises. This increase in the number of emissions continued in the following years; despite decreasing in 2019–2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Turkiye’s contribution to the global carbon budget has increased. After the pandemic, production was increased to eliminate its negative effects on the economy, and widespread forest fires in the summer of 2021 resulted in Turkiye’s land sinks being reduced.Turkiye has committed to a 21% reduction in its greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, as per the scope of the Paris Climate Accords. In accordance with this, four different emission forecasting scenarios compatible with the 1.5°C limit detailed in the Paris Agreement have been prepared within the scope of this study for the 1990-2050 period. These four can be categorized as: 1.5°C Paris Agreement compatible, almost sufficient, insufficient, and highly insufficient. If Turkiye can implement a reduction scenario that is compatible with the 1.5°C limit stated in Paris Agreement, Turkiye will be seen to be converging with its zero emissions target at the end of the period. However, even in the case of an application that is compatible with the almost sufficient scenario, greenhouse gas emissions are predicted to decrease and be able to approach the level of emissions from 1990. This scenario shows that Turkiye is able to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions with the right policies and effective decarbonization roadmap.&nbsp;

One of the focal points regarding the developments and ongoing debates in macroeconomic theory and policy after the 1990s is the Taylor rule, which provides the relationship between interest and the inflation-output gap, and the policy practices this rule puts forth. Various monetary policy reaction models have been developed that examine the relation ships among production, inflation, and interest rates in economic theory. Taylor (1993) suggested that the Central Banks responsible for monetary policy should change short-term interest rates in the same direction as the difference between the actual inflation-output gap and the targeted inflation rate, with this view later being called the Taylor rule. The Taylor rule allows a central bank to use the short-term interest rate as a monetary policy tool and is more generally based on ensuring sustainable economic growth and price stability (Taylor, 1996). Taylor (1993) introduced this rule specifically to the US Federal Reserve (FED), and since then it has become a widely used and discussed model in other countries’ economies.When looking at the interest rate practices in Turkiye, market interest rates pre-1980s are seen to have been determined by the political authority. In the 1980s, interest rates were occasionally left to market forces, and after 1989, they were completely left to market forces. As the monetary authority, the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkiye (CBRT) initiated an inflation targeting strategy in 2002, and used short-term interest rates as the main policy instrument when applying the inflation targeting regime.The aim of this study is to develop an opinion on whether Taylor’s rule is valid for the Turkish economy. This study aims to test Taylor’s rule based on a data set of the Turkish economy and a time series analysis and has been organized as follows. The introduction provides the theoretical background regarding the Taylor rule. The second section presents summaries of some studies on the subject. The third section defines the model, the data set, and the econometric methods used in the study and discusses the empirical findings. The last section evaluates the empirical findings.In order to determine at what level the central bank should set policy rates within the framework of the Taylor rule, the study discusses the Turkish economy within the scope of quarterly data for the period 2003 Q3-2019 Q4. For this purpose, the study uses the variables of nominal interest rate (𝑖𝑡 ), inflation gap (p𝑡 −p𝑡 ∗ ), and output gap (𝑦𝑡 −𝑦𝑡 ∗ ) by taking the traditional Taylor rule equation as a reference. Model 1 takes the deposit interest rate (12-month average) as the short-term nominal interest rate. The difference between the consumer price index (CPI, or actual inflation) and the targeted inflation data announced by the CBRT (i.e., expected inflation) is used to define the inflation gap, and the industrial production index (IPI) is used to represent GDP for the output gap. The output gap is obtained by subtracting the potential series obtained by applying the Hodrick-Prescott filter from the available series. IPI and CPI series are seasonally adjusted usingthe X12 procedure. Next, the study representsthe logarithmic interest rate as LFAIZ, inflation gap as INFLATION, and logarithmic production gap as LGDP. The data set for the three variables used in the study was compiled from the CBRT Electronic Data Delivery System. The vector autoregressive (VAR) models preferred in this study are among the standard analysis tools forexaminingthe dynamic relationships between macroeconomic variables and are used extensively in applied econometrics (Lovrinovic&amp;Benazic, 2004, p. 30). VAR is applied when the variables used in the macroeconomic models are not known for certain to be purely exogenous or not. The VAR approach was developed by Sims (1980) and examines all the selected variables together in a system integrity without imposing any restrictions on the structural model.&nbsp;The study first examined whether the series are stationary or not with the help of both the augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) and Phillips-Perron (PP) tests. Under the traditional Taylor rule, the interest rate is expected to react positively to increases in the inflation-production gap. When examining the impulse-response functions, the policy interest rate is seen to react negatively to the inflation gap and positively to shocks in the production gap. On the other hand, variance decomposition results show 5% of the variance inthe interest rate to beexplained by the inflation gap at the end of the 10 year period; 8% of the variance was also explained by deviations in the output gap. These empirical findings indicate the traditional Taylor rule to not be valid for the case of Turkiye, with the changes in the interest rate being due to production gap deviations rather than the inflation gap. This situation can be interpreted as the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkiye needing to consider the production gap rather than the inflation gap when making interest rate adjustments. The central bank, whose main objective is to establish price stability, is believed to take into account fluctuations in inflation when formulating its interest policy, which may have positive effects on the general course of the economy.&nbsp;

The shadow economy is defined as activities that contribute to the officially calculated but unrecorded gross domestic product (GDP) (Schneider &amp; Enste, 2000). Many causes exist for the shadow economy. While some of these causes decrease the size of the shadow economy, others are able to increase its size. When looking at the causes of the shadow economy, they can be listed as being economic, political, social, psychological, cultural, legal, and administrative, among others. This study emphasizes financial development, which is seen as one of the causes of the shadow economy, and reveals the relationship between the two empirically.Financial development has a shrinking effect on the shadow economy. Increases in financial development facilitate the follow-up of economic activities. The shadow economy generally operates with cash, which is preferred because keeping track of cash is difficult and keeping cash is easier compared to other prohibited goods. Increases in financial development also decrease the use of cash, with various other methods being able to be used in place of cash. This will facilitates monitoring the flow of money through various means.The main function of the financial system is the transfer of funds from savers to companies and individuals. Financial development not only helps savings to change hands but also operationalizes various functions. It facilitates the exchange of goods and services and also provides resource allocation and organizational control. These both are the factors that increase economic growth while reducing the shadow economy. Firms and individuals will have to operate in the formal sector to take advantage of financial development, which will then reduce the shadow economy. They get encouraged to operate in the formal economy due to financial development. Therefore, a negative relationship exists between financial development and the shadow economy.Studies in the literature have found a negative relationship between the shadow economy and financial development, stating that increases in financial development decrease the shadow economy. When examining these studies, they are seen to generally use panel data analysis (Ajide, 2021; Bayar, &amp; Özturk, 2016; Berdiev, &amp; Saunoris, 2016; Bose, Capasso, &amp; Wurm, 2012; Canh, &amp; Thanh, 2020; Capasso, &amp; Jappelli, 2013; Gharleghi, &amp; Jahanshahi, 2020; Gobbi, &amp; Zizza, 2007; Khan, Abdul Hamid, &amp; Rehman, 2021; Njangang, Nembot, &amp; Ngameni, 2020). This study presents the relationship between financial development and the shadow economy by considering the example of Turkey. The study uses indices involving financial development, financial markets, and financial institutions to represent financial development and the shadow economy forecast data revealed by Elgin et al. (2020) for representing data on the shadow economy. The study covers the years 1990-2017 and also uses the augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) unit root, Fourier ADF unit root, and Fourier Todo-Yamamoto causality tests.As a result of the findings, a causal relationship has been found between the shadow economy and financial markets. The direction of causality has been found to go from financial markets to the shadow economy. With regard to the analyzed period, the shadow economy has been affected by the movements of financial markets. Under favorable financial markets conditions, firms and individuals can diversify their savings and increase their earnings. As a result of the effective and smooth operation of financial markets, the income obtained from the formal economy may exceed the income obtained from the shadow economy. Effective financial markets encourage firms, and individuals tend toward a formal economy. While struggling with the shadow economy, the relationship between financial development and the shadow economy should be considered. Economies that have more developed financial systems see both stimulation regarding economic growth as well as a decline in the shadow economy.&nbsp;&nbsp;

When considering the speed and level of global impact as a result of human activities, climate change is an important issue for all living things. The greenhouse effect and temperatures needed for maintaining life on earth have reached undesirable dimensions. Fossil fuel use, land use changes, and deforestation have increased in line with the increases in industrialization, population growth, and economic growth. These activities have currently accelerated and continue to accelerate climate change. Climate change is a current problem with its emerging impacts as well as a problem for the future due to the longevity of greenhouse gases. Emission trends are monitored in terms of the dimensions of human activities, historical responsibilities, and evaluations of current and future conditions. This study evaluates the anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions with carbon dioxide emissions having the greatest impact on climate change from among the greenhouse gases. When considering the factors affecting the formation of greenhouse gas emissions, fossil fuels and industry are seen to take up the greatest proportion. In terms of sectors, industry, electricity and heating, and other land uses lead the way in greenhouse gas emissions. The long-term trends of carbon dioxide emissions draw attention to coal and oil as having high emission rates. When evaluating the topic in terms of region, East Asia has the highest greenhouse gas emissions, while North America and Europe have the highest carbon dioxide emissions. Climate change can have a wide variety of impacts, with anthropogenic impacts being considered more significant than natural impacts with regard to climate change. Awareness and correct assessments of the impacts of climate change, are a considerable guide toward arriving at solutions. Therefore, this study, examines the categories of structural changes in ecosystems; water security and food production; human health and welfare; and cities, settlements and infrastructure. Almost every region has been adversely affected at a high level with regard to the category of structural changes to ecosystems, and complex (negative and positive) impacts are seen to have occurred in the category of water security and food production. The categories of human health and welfare and of cities, settlements and infrastructure can be said to have experienced a generally high level of negative impacts. The following impacts from climate change are understood once again as a result of the evaluations that have been made for all the categories. Taking the necessary steps is important, especially for anthropogenic impacts. Even if all greenhouse gases are stopped, preventing some of the impacts from climate change will still be impossible due to the long period of time they’ve been occuring. However, taking the necessary precautions will reduce the severity of the negative consequences that will occur on life and the planet.&nbsp;The study draws a general framework for the challenges encountered within the scope of adaptation to and struggle with climate change and discusses the relationships among factors, global initiatives, planning, institutional arrangements, uncertainty, complex and invisible problems, public support, status quo bias, time delays, and costs and benefits. The issues of justice and ethics have been emphasized alongside these factors, because the parties causing climate change and the parties being affected by it are not always the same. A fair assessment should be made in terms responsibility on this point. At the same time, the solutions to be brought by a system that evaluates natural resources only within the scope of economy will be insufficient. Global initiatives, need to determine the appropriate policies, make joint decisions, and evaluate these decisions in line with the different parties’ responsibilities. In spite of all this, developed countries still dominate global initiatives with their political and economic power. In addition, in global initiatives’ objectives tend to have a general rather than specific nature, and the policies they determine are narrow in scope and lack enforcement mechanisms.&nbsp;

Climate Change: An Evaluation of Its Impacts and the  Encountered Challenges

Whether the minimum wage increase is above or below the inflation rate in Turkey has been debated for many years. Since the beginning of COVID-19, inflation and other macroeconomic factors have progressed inconsistently in Turkey and the world. The rise in inflation had caused impoverishment in the class earning minimum wage. To reduce this impoverishment, minimum wage is increased again, with this increase then increasing demand and raising inflation again. The literature refers to this relationship as the price-wage spiral (Akgül &amp; Bükey, 2020; Blanchard, 1986; Coorey et al., 1996; Lemos, 2004; Odabaşıoğlu Gündoğdu, 2014).The minimum wage must meet individuals’ minimum mandatory needs. Therefore, it must be above the hunger threshold (Uzunoğlu, 2021). Wage increases that are lower than the inflation rate cause a decrease in real wages and poverty (Akdaş et al., 2020). In Turkey, the hunger and poverty thresholds are calculated for a nuclear family. When considering that children and women in a traditional nuclear family do not work or are employed informally, the minimum wage and hunger and poverty thresholds can be evaluated together (Kargı, 2013; Şahin &amp; Aydın, 2017; Uzunoğlu, 2021).Limited empirical studies are found on the relationship between minimum wage and inflation. Some of these studies have shown a bilateral relationship between minimum wage and inflation (Akgül &amp; Bükey, 2020; Korkmaz &amp; Çoban, 2006; Sunal &amp; Sezgin Alp, 2015), while Gümüş and Akgüneş (2020) and Mehregan and Rezaee (2009) additionally found a unidirectional causality to exist going from inflation to minimum wage. Başkaya and Özmen (2013), Heemskerk et al. (2017), Tüleykan (2019), and Yıldırım (2015) all concluded minimum wage to affect inflation. Campos-Vazquez and Esquivel (2020), Cuong (2011), and Kargı (2013) stated no relationship to exist between minimum wage and inflation. Kargı’s study was the only one conducted to address the relationship between the minimum wage and the hunger and poverty thresholds in Turkey and determined bilateral causality to exist between those variables. This study is thought to contribute to the literature due to the relationships among hunger and poverty thresholds, regional inflation, and minimum wage not having yet been tested.The local minimum wage in Turkey was regulated between 1951-1967, and a regional minimum wage was applied between 1967-1974. In 1974, a single minimum wage began being determined at the national level (Korkmaz, 2004). Just as in countries such as the US, China, and Mexico, the literature in Turkey has had discussions on how to determine minimum wage at the regional level by taking regional development and inflation into consideration (Akgeyik, 2007; Küçük, 2016; Yükseler, 2010). However, the relationship between minimum wage and regional inflation has yet to be empirically studied. For this reason, the study is thought to contribute through its empirical findings to the debate on whether or not to pass a regional minimum wage application.Six-month data for the period 2005-2022 was considered as the analysis period. This study examines the causality relationship between minimum wage and different inflation calculations, as well as how hunger and poverty thresholds affect minimum wage. The causality test developed by Toda and Yamamoto (1995) is a method based on the extended vector autoregression (VAR) model with a chi-square distribution that may cause a problem of varying variance and the detection of spurious causality relationships in tests performed on small data sets. Hacker &amp; Hatemi-J (2006) developed the MWALD test using the bootstrap method to overcome this situation. To avoid problems in small data sets, causality is tested with the Toda-Yamamoto causality test based on the bootstrap method. Accordingly, the variables other than net minimum wage and CPI have a causal relationship. On the other hand, gross minimum wage and employer cost have a bidirectional causality relationship through inflation variables and hunger, and poverty thresholds. In addition, while the rate at which minimum wage increases did not cause CPI or inflation PPI, a bilateral causality relationship does exist between other variables and the minimum wage increase rate.The second part of the analysis examines whether a regional inflation convergence occurs in Turkey and tests the causality relationship between minimum wage and regional inflation levels. According to the unit root test, Turkey has no strong convergence with regard to interregional inflation, with the convergence process differing according to region. After the interregional convergence test, the causality relationship between regional inflation and minimum wage was investigated, but these results also differed regionally.This study investigates the relationship minimum wage has with inflation, regional inflation, hunger, and poverty and suggests that a regional minimum wage should be adopted. However, many factors exist that need to be considered when determining regional minimum wage. Future studies can evaluate purchasing power as an alternative to inflation while investigating regional differences.&nbsp;

Purpose of the Study Public decisions affect the allocation of funds, apportionment, economic stability, and all economic outcomes, and thus also affects the welfare of all individuals in society. Because of this, the questions of how public decisions are made, according to which rules the process is made, and how efficiency will be provided (or what kind of inefficiencies result) at the end of this process have become a major research area for political and economic science. The systematic analysis of the theories and findings of different schools provides a basis for positive analyses. Examining how different political and institutional conditions can have different economic and fiscal outcomes is able to answer normative questions such as which political institutions are more desirable in terms of social welfare.Methodology This study thematically and chronologically evaluates the literature on public decisionmaking processes according to the extent of political and institutional factors and the methodological approach they partly follow. The literature is very plentiful as it has developed through the contributions from many disciplines such as economics, mathematics, and political science. Because of this, the extent of the literature the study will examine has been narrowed down to studies that focus on the fiscal results of political and institutional variables using the public economy perspective. A classification is made in such a way that the progress in public finance democratic systems, economics/politics theories, and the differences in the studied sample of countries will affect the evolution of the literature.FindingsTraditional public economy analyses have analyzed decision-making process with respect to a demand-oriented, normative methodology. Rational standards have been sought that will maximize social welfare. The feature of public goods being tied to collective consumption has swayed the interest of researchers toward political exchange processes, with researchers having analyzed the effect of&nbsp;voting mechanisms on public decisions. The models developed in this context have become demand-oriented normative models. The public choice school of thought has seen a positive methodological understanding get adopted in public decision-making models. With that being said, the attributes of institutional environments have yet to be sufficiently dwelled upon. The public choice school has developed constitutional economics, which is defined as a variable with external institutional factors that also puts forth the importance of institutional factors. Its focus is on how to shape these institutions with a normative perspective. Around the same time as the public choice school, political scientists started researching how institutional factors affect fiscal outcomes by combining economic and political perspectives. However, these types of research have mostly been made according to the attributions of AngloSaxon countries’ political systems. How public decisions are made in different political systems and under different institutional conditions started being examined in the 1990s. Continental European authors in particular have contributed to the political economic approach, which dominates the public decision-making literature. These authors have developed models based on the synthesis of the public choice school and normative welfare economy and have contributed to the literature through their empirical research in particular.Conclusion﻿The public decision-making process that is discussed in the context of public expenditures theory in the traditional economic approach has ignored political and institutional variables and focused on how individual choices can be transformed into societal decisions. Parallel to the development of democratic institutions, changes have taken place in the extent and methodology of public decision-making models. Positive analyses have largely taken the place of normative analyses. Aside from demand-oriented examinations, supply-oriented examinations have also started being made. The public choice school dominates the related literature. With that being said, however, the political scientists who place great importance in the roles that rules and institutions have regarding policy-making processes have also brought a new perspective to the literature on public decision making. During the 1990s, the political economic approach is what was used to synthesize normative and positive perspectives. This approach reviewed political institutions and their economic consequences and has made significant contributions, especially to the empirical literature. According to the examined topic, the public decision-making literature has seen the normative or positive methodology to have been adopted. Despite the implications of what that means, important questions such as which institutions are more desirable in terms of social welfare have always maintained their importance.&nbsp;
