Özet:

To ensure economic growth is at the forefront of the priorities of the government’s economic policies. But economic growth alone is not a desirable situation, and it is expected to justice in the income distribution and consequently reduce poverty. The knowledge of the relationship between these three key macroeconomic indicators will make a significant contribution to achieving an economic growth goal that reduces inequality in income distribution and poverty. For this purpose, the ARDL Border Test and the short-term and long-term relationship between poverty, income inequality and economic growth in Turkey has been analyzed. The variables and data set used in the analysis are the characteristics that distinguish work from similar ones. According to the empirical outcome of the study, a statistically meaningful causal relationship between the variables in the short and long period is concerned. Economic growth and change in income per person in the long term have a positive impact on the human development index, while change in income distribution has a negative impact.
