Özet
Amaç - Bu çalışmada temel amaç, ekonomik karmaşıklık düzeyi ile cinsiyet eşitsizliği arasındaki ilişkileri analiz etmektir. Küresel perspektiften uygulanan bu analizlerde ülkeler gelir gruplarına göre ayrıştırılarak gelişmişlik farklılıklarına göre etkilerin değişip değişmediği analiz edilmesi hedeflenmektedir.
Yöntem/Metodoloji/Dizayn- Yöntem olarak panel veri analizinde Genelleştirilmiş Momentler Metodu (GMM) uygulamaları yapılmıştır. Model tahminlemesi öncesinde panel veride serilerin durağanlık araştırmaları birim kök testleri ile yapılmış, ardından Hausman Testi ile uygun model seçimi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ön bulgular için En Küçük Kareler (EKK) ile tahminlemenin ardından GMM metodu ile analiz sonuçları elde edilmiştir.
Sonuçlar- Sonuçlar, beklendiği üzere gelir gruplarına göre etkilerin değiştiğini göstermektedir. Söz konusu etkilerin analizi, ekonomilerde gelir düzeylerine göre uygun politikaların neler olması gerektiği ve ekonomik karmaşıklık düzeyinin işgücü piyasalarında cinsiyet eşitsizliğini azaltmak üzere nasıl organize edilmesi gerektiğini ortaya koymaktadır.
Katkı/Farklılıklar- Kadınların işgücü piyasalarında istihdam konusunda maruz kaldıkları ayrımcılığı tespit etmeye yönelik yapılan analizler, ekonomik karmaşıklık düzeyinin işgücü piyasalarında kadınlara yönelik etkilerinin tespit edilmesi ve uygun politika çıkarımlarının geliştirilmesi açısından önem arz etmektedir. Bu noktada çalışmanın ilgili alana katkısı, literatürdeki boşluğu doldurması ve uygun politika önerilerinin geliştirilmesi için gerekli ampirik bulguları sunması açılarından olmaktadır.

The Impact of Economic Complexity on Gender Inequality in the Context of Sustainable Development: Panel Data Analyses for Countries in Different Income Levels

Öz

Abstract
Purpose - The main purpose of this study is analys-ing the relationships between gender equality and economic complexity. Following this purpose, global examinations as to different income groups of countries have been conducted.
Methodology/Approach/Design- Generalized Methods of Moments (GMM) Technique has been adopted to estimate the model for different panel sets. Before estimations, stationarity checks have been conducted by panel unit root tests. Then mod-el selection has been made through Hausman Test and Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) estimations have been conducted for pre-evaluations. Lastly, empiri-cal results have been handled by GMM estimations.
Findings- As expected, empirical results have proved that results vary as to different country groups. Results underline the importance of policy formation as to income levels of countries. Also, they provide an insight to reorganize economic complexity level in order to increase gender equali-ty in labor markets.
Originality/Value- The analyses conducted to de-tect gender discriminations in labor markets have a critical importance to observe the impacts of eco-nomic complexity on female laborforce and to de-velop efficient policy recommendations. In this context, the main contribution of this study is fill-ing the significant gap in the related literature and providing empirical results for policymakers.
