OBEZİTE İLE MÜCADELEDE VERGİLENDİRME: TÜRKİYE’DE MÜMKÜN MÜ?

Bu çalışmanın amacı, obezite ile mücadelede uygulanan vergileme politikasını ele almaktır.
Çalışmada son yıllarda gündemde olan obezite vergilerinin tanımı, amaçları, etkileri ayrıntılı bir
şekilde incelenmiş ve Türkiye’de uygulanabilirliği değerlendirilmiştir. Bu makaleye göre; Avrupa
Birliği Üyesi ülkelerde uygulanmaya başlanan bu vergilerin Türkiye’de de uygulanabilirliğinin
değerlendirilmesi gerekmektedir. Çalışma sonunda obezite vergisi adı altında uygulanabilecek bir
vergi ile sağlıklı gıdaların daha az, sağlıksız gıdaların ise daha fazla vergilendirilmesi yoluyla,
bireylerin sağlıksız gıda tüketiminin azaltılabileceği ve daha sağlıklı gıdaları tercih etmelerinin
sağlanabileceği öne sürülmektedir.
