The major aim of this thesis is to analyze the impact of structural change of exports and technology level on the international competitiveness. In order to analyze international competitiveness, export market shares are used. The empirical analysis suggested in this thesis includes two steps. In the first step, constant market share analysis is conducted to understand the causes of changes in export market shares from one period to another and in the second step a difference generalized method of moments model is proposed for 44 manufacturing sectors, which are classified with respect to their technology intensities, over 2003- 2008 period. The results are highly sensitive to the technology intensity of sectors.

The impact of international capital flows in a three-sector open economy: a dynamic general equilibrium analysis
Akgül, Zeynep; Saraçoğlu, Dürdane Şirin; Department of Economics (2009)
This thesis examines the effects of international capital flows on economic growth by using a dynamic general equilibrium framework based on a three-sector Ramsey Model. In order to detect the impact of financial integration on production, allocation of resources across three sectors and consumption, two different economic environments are modelled. While the first model represents a closed economy with financial autarky, the second model examplifies a financially integrated open economy with partial capita...
Framing mega regional trade agreements within global capitalism: an analysis of the TPP, TTIP and TISA proposals/
Kahya, Pınar; Yalman, Osman Galip; Department of Political Science and Public Administration (2016)
The thesis investigates the reasons behind the emergence of a new generation of mega trade liberalization agreements in different scales. These scales are the US-the EU scale which is concretized with Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), Asia-Pacific scale which is on scope of Transpacific Partnership (TPP), and Trade in Services Agreement (TISA) which is negotiated beyond these scales. The aim of the study is to identify the main structural factors, strategies and agencies which drive the...
The determinants of international competitiveness: the case of Turkish manufacturing sector
Gençay, Mehmet; Erdil, Erkan; Department of Science and Technology Policy Studies (2003)
The aim of this thesis is to identify and to study the micro and macro determinants of export performance. The results of micro determinants suggest that there is no significant relationship between export performance and R&D intensity, which could be a result of underreport of R&D expenditures in income statements of firms and the realization of its effects in the long-term. The results for marketing intensity, ratio of foreign exchange profits in total sales, fixed investment intensity and capital intensi...
The impact of the liberalization program on the price-cost margin and investment of Turkey's manufacturing sector after 1980
Metin-Ozcan, K; Voyvoda, Ebru; YELDAN, ALP ERİNÇ (2002-09-01)
In this paper we investigate the structural consequences of the post-1980 outward-orientation on the market concentration and accumulation patterns in the Turkish manufacturing industries. Using various panel data procedures over twenty-nine subsectors of Turkish manufacturing for the 1980-1996 period, we focus on three sets of issues: (1) the effect of openness on the extent of market concentration as measured in CR4 ratios; (2) the behavior of gross profit margins (markups) in relation to openness, concen...
The impact of crude oil prices on financial market indicators: copula approach
Kayalar, Derya Ezgi; KÜÇÜKÖZMEN, CUMHUR ÇOŞKUN; Kestel, Sevtap Ayşe (2017-01-01)
Oil price changes have varying impacts on the financial indicators of global markets and economies. This study aims to explore the dependence structure between crude oil prices and stock market indices, as well as the exchange rates in a number of economies categorized with respect to their status as developing/emerging markets, and oil importer/exporter countries. Dependence structures in this study are evaluated in considerable depth using copula models. The broad time period covered allows the investigat...
