Comparisons of the countries in terms of human development index and nutritional deficiency, showed similar characteristics with Iran, however, Turkey is dissociated from European countries, Korea and the US.

Özet

Bu çalışmada insani gelişme endeksi, ekonomik gelişmişlik ve beslenme ilişkisi değerlendirilmiştir. Türkiye, Norveç, Kore, İtalya, Yunanistan, Bulgaristan, İran ve Amerika’ya ait veriler karşılaştırılmıştır. Türkiye’nin genel durumu değerlendirilmiş ve çözüm önerileri sunulmuştur. Çalışmada, Türkiye ile ekonomik büyüklük ve coğrafi yakınlık gibi özellikleri benzer ülkeler ve insani gelişmişlik endeksi yüksek olan ülkeler birçok parametre için karşılaştırılmıştır. Karşılaştırmalar, ülkemizin insani gelişmişlik endeksi ve beslenme yetersizliği açısından, İran ile benzer özellikler gösterdiğini ancak Avrupa ülkeleri, Kore ve ABD’den ayrıştığını göstermiştir. Sonuç olarak, ekonomik kalkınmışlık seviyesinin değil ülkeleri karşılaştırmada insani gelişmişlik endeksinin çok daha doğru sonuçlar verdiği görülmüştür.
