Note: [English Title] On Transparency (2): The De Facto Situation and A Discussion [English Abstract] Transperancy is a sine-qua-non of "perfect competition ", which has traditionally been a keystone of mainstream economic instruction. During the past two decades, rapid developments in information and information-dissemination technologies have increased both the availability of information and the importance of "knowledge" as an asset; and meanwhile a rising wave of globalization has intensified demand for increased transparency. Globalization has increased and popularized demand for transparency ironicaly. New technologies have provided opportunities for enhanced transparency, have developed new means of achieving more extensive transparency and have reduced the cost of attaining it. However, as enhanced communication and information-dissemination can not, by themselves, guarantee the existence of perfect competition, so too there are no guaranrees that the increased opportunities deriving from these technological developments would automatically enhance transparency. This study aims at questioning the assymetries between increased opportunities for transparency and de-facto transparency. Developments in digital and worldwide web technologies have enhanced transparency, but meamwhile, paradoxically, corruption has become more organized. Although Turkey's rank in the Corruption Perceptions lndex produced by Transparency International seems to have gotten better, there have been no significant improvements in terms of grade-points she is given. [English Keywords] transparency, information, Transparency International, Corruption Perceptions Index
