Abstract
The phenomenon of well-being, which has been an important part of sustainable development plans in recent years, has been on the agenda of both individuals and societies, especially with the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic. The relationship between globalization and well-being has started to gain more importance in this process. On the other hand, despite the positive effects that globalization brings, it has encountered a very reactive attitude in Muslim societies due to the effect of cultural change in its essence. In this context, the effect of globalization on the level of human well-being in Turkey, as an example of a Muslim country, will be emphasized. The study covered the years 1990-to 2018 and the time series technique, one of the econometric methods, is applied. Although globalization contains the possibility of cultural and value homogenization, as a result of the empirical analysis, it is found that there is a long-term relationship between globalization and human well-being. In addition, in the long-term analysis, it is concluded that globalization has a positive and statistically significant effect on human well-being. The study is important in the context of researching the relationship between globalization and well-being in the Turkish sample for the first time in the literature
