Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı MIKTA ülkelerinin (Meksika, Endonezya, Kore, Türkiye ve Avustralya) ulusal insan sermayelerinin mevcut durumunu makro ölçekte karşılaştırmak ve bu politik varlığın insan sermayesi temelinde temelleri olup olmadığını anlamaktır. Mevcut hükümetlerin eğitim politikaları ile şekillenen ulusal insan sermayesinin durumu değerlendirilmektedir. Sonuçlar, insan sermayeleri ve alt göstergeleri bakımından iki MIKTA ülkesi olduğunu göstermektedir. Avustralya ve Kore, diğerleriyle karşılaştırıldığında yüksek bir profile sahiptir. Türkiye, Meksika ve Endonezya, Kore ve Avustralya'ya kıyasla düşük profildedir. Geleceğe yönelik insan sermayesi birikim stratejileri ile ilgili öneriler de sonuçlara bağlı olarak verilmektedir.

A NEW OPPORTUNITY FOR INNOVATIVE PARTNERSHIP?: A CASE OF MIKTA COUNTRIES

Abstract

The purpose of
this study is to compare the current state of national human capitals of MIKTA
countries (Mexico, Indonesia, Korea, Turkey and Australia) in macro scale and
to understand whether this political entity has foundations on the human
capital basis or not. The state of national human capital shaped by educational
policies of current governments is evaluated. Results show that there are two
groups of MIKTA countries in terms of
their human capitals and sub-indicators.
Australia and Korea have a high profile
when compared with others. Turkey, Mexico, and
Indonesia are in low profile when compared with Korea and Australia.
Suggestions regarding the future human capital accumulation strategies are also
provided depending on the results.
