Abstract
This chapter studies the political economic sources of policy design with a specific focus on the policy non-design and on the haphazard instrument choices in Turkey during the two overlapping crises: Covid-19 crisis and the currency crisis-induced economic crisis in 2018. The chapter argues that the haphazard crisis response and policy non-design was a deliberate choice of the authoritarian Turkish government, which originated from its prioritisation of higher economic growth to serve electoral and political economic constituencies. In addition, haphazard instrument choice and policy non-design caused decay in systemic and organisational policy capacity.
