Abstract

The structural situation of the 21st century in the world system is expressed as "globalization". This situation has a wide range of influence from state administration to politics, from economic operation to social development. When any element on the world scale is studied scientifically, the effects and consequences of the phenomenon of globalization must be taken into account. The International Political Economy (UPI), which has recently emerged from an important subdivision of the international economic sciences into an almost independent field, is predominantly examining the effects and consequences of the phenomenon of globalization. Based on the examination of state policies and the interaction of the global economy, UPI is the main axis of this work. Income inequality, one of the drawbacks of the globalization process, and poverty, which has become a chronic problem, constitute one of the main issues of UPI. In this study, the effects of taxation on poverty, which is one of the most important of state policies, have been studied in the context of UPI.
