The Relationships between Debt and Economic Growth in Central Asia and Caucasus
Orta Asya ve Kafkaslarda Borç-Ekonomik Büyüme İlişkileri

Abstract

Central Asia both of which became politically independent in 1991 resemble each other with respect to social-cultural life. The most remarkable difference between them is of richness in terms of natural resources. In the 15 years process, a substantial jump in Central Asia economies has been observed while Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan economies could even not reach its income level in 1991. Despite these differences in terms of economic structure, it is seen that of them have a tendency to get increasingly indebted and has no direct contribution to their economic growth.
