Özet:

Pure public goods and services are goods and services in which the benefit is spread to the whole society and this benefit cannot be divided among individuals, no one can be excluded from its consumption, there is no competition in consumption, their supply is shaped within the political process, their financing is provided by taxes and goods and services produced by the state. As one of the basic functions of the state, justice services are one of the pure public goods and services in terms of their qualities. Although justice services are generally accepted as full public goods and services in the literature, there are also opinions that consider justice services as semi-public goods and services. One of the most important criteria determining the success of the state in public services; it is how the public service is perceived by the society. This study was conducted to determine the social perception of justice services in Turkey. In the study, first of all, with the help of the questionnaire, the scale of which was created by us, it was investigated whether the justice services are perceived by the society as pure public goods and services or as semi-public goods and services. A series of regression analyzes were also conducted in order to determine the variables that affect the social perception of the justice services. According to the analysis results; justice services are perceived as pure public goods and services. The factors affecting this perception are; place of residence, fair trial, resolution in a reasonable time, basic function of the state, benefit, satisfaction, sense of justice and trust, only social benefit and both individual and social benefit.
