The purpose of this paper is to investigate the relationship between exports and imports in Turkey. In the paper cointegration analysis is employed using annual data for the period 1947-90. The major finding is that the long-run relationship between exports and imports disappears when imports of raw materials are excluded from the analysis. This implies that policies aimed at encouraging exports will be successful if Turkey reduces its reliance on imported raw materials by developing domestic substitutes.
