About

Economics most often enters the public agenda through headlines such as crises, growth rates, or inflation. Yet each of these topics is part of a broader structure that directly shapes everyday life and social relations. We tend to assess economic developments through the data we observe; however, it is important to remember that behind these figures lie decisions, choices, and social consequences. For this reason, thinking about economics is not merely an academic pursuit, but also a way of making sense of everyday life.

My name is Sumeyye Tuncer. I hold a bachelor’s degree in economics and a master’s degree in economic policy. For nearly three years, I worked as an economics editor at a national newspaper. During this period, I prepared news articles, analyses, and commentaries on the Türkiye economy and global economic developments, while closely following a wide range of reports, datasets, and academic studies.

My primary area of focus is the digital economy. I have designed this website as an economics diary in which I assess local and global developments in the field of economics in light of the reports, articles, and data I engage with, while also systematically documenting my intellectual and analytical development.

Should you encounter any errors, omissions, or points open to debate in my writings, I would be pleased to receive your feedback.

Welcome to My Economics Diary. This is a space where I interpret economic reports, data, and analyses. Here, I examine the different components of the economy from digital and international economics to political economy and reflect on how the decisions and figures shaping this field are manifested in everyday life.
