This thesis examines trends in domestic value added and vertical specialization of Turkish exports between the years 1995 and 2011. The World Input Output Database (WIOD) is used for calculation of domestic and foreign value added in Turkish exports by utilizing MATLAB programming. Furthermore, countries’ contributions to Turkish vertical specialization are calculated. The findings show that the vertical specialization of Turkey has risen in relevant period and hence it can be said that the integration into Global Value Chains (GVCs) has increased. Turkey has vertically specialized on mainly high-tech sectors. Moreover, Germany, China, Italy and France play important roles in foreign value added of Turkish exports. This study contributes the literature by being the first study to use the WIOD for the analysis of vertical specialization and domestic value added in Turkish exports between the years 1995 – 2011.

Importance of natural gas reserves for Turkmen economy
Kerimov, Mergen; Ege, Aylin; Department of Economics (2015)
Turkmenistan became a sovereign state in 1991 and since then it has been pursuing a market based economic policy. As a result of massive energy reserves, extractive sectors and specifically natural gas sector of Turkmenistan have been the driving force of its sustained and high economic growth so far. This study examines the importance of natural gas reserves for Turkmen economy and derives policy recommendations for having sustained export revenues and high economic growth. In doing so, future demand for T...
European Union's natural gas trade with Russia : competing priorities of supply security and supply diversification
Aydın, Ayşe Esra; Tanrısever, Oktay Fırat; Department of Eurasian Studies (2012)
This thesis examines the bilateral relations of European Union and Russia in terms of energy trade. The main question of this thesis is whether European Union could realize its energy strategies of supply security and supply diversification in its natural gas trade with Russia. The main argument of this thesis is; Russia has been undermining the EU’s energy strategy, by using the contradictions between the EU’s energy strategy priorities of supply security and supply diversification. Emphasizing the signifi...
The Determinants of the Price-Cost Margins of the Manufacturing Firms in Turkey
Çulha, Ali; Yalçın, Cihan (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi (Ankara, Turkey), 2005-12)
This study examines the determinants of the price-cost margins in the Turkish manufacturing industry spanning from 1995 to 2003. The literature on this subject points to the importance of market structure, business cycles and input costs. Utilizing panel data econometric techniques on a large number of manufacturing firms by conditioning on their size, age, ownership and export orientation, the study finds that there exists a marked difference among the firms’ pricing behaviors according to their market sha...
Real exchange rates and job flows: evidence from Turkey
Dogan, Ergun; İslam, Muhammed Qamarul; Yazici, Mehmet (2018-01-01)
This study investigates the effects of the real exchange rate on job flows in Turkish manufacturing industries between 2006 and 2015 using data at the four-digit NACE Revision 2 level. Using dynamic panel data models, we find that a real appreciation increases gross and net job creation rates, and that the effect of appreciation is magnified as the exposure to international competitiveness of industries increases. We think that this is because Turkish manufacturing firms import a greater share of their inpu...
Economic growth and technological progress in Turkey: An analysis of Schumpeterian mechanisms
Attar, M. Aykut (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi (Ankara, Turkey), 2017-8)
This paper studies a second-generation Schumpeterian model to understand the nature of technological progress and economic growth in Turkey. It identifies some structural parameters numerically and tests whether certain Schumpeterian mechanisms work. Results show that both horizontal (product) and vertical (process) innovation channels operate as determined in theory. However, the pace at which vertical (process) innovation occurs is extremely low, implying that its contribution to long-run productivit...
