EKONOMİK BÜYÜME VE REKABET GÜCÜ ÜZERİNE TÜRKİYE ANALİZİ
Türkiye’nin rekabet gücü yapısı zamana göre değişmektedir. Karar vericiler için Türkiye’nin hangi sektörlerde karşılaştırmalı üstünlüğe sahip olduğunun ve ekonomik büyümeyi olumlu gönde etkilediğinin bilinmesi politika yapım sürecinden önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmada Türkiye’nin rekabet gücü 10 farklı sektör için Balassa ve Lafay endekslerine göre hesaplanmıştır. Kişi başına sermaye birikimi, KOF endeksiyle ifade edilen küreselleşme endeksi ve rekabet gücü endekslerinin Türkiye kişi başına GSYİH’sı üzerindeki etkileri sınır testleri yardımıyla incelenmiştir. Sonuç olarak bazı sektörlerin Türkiye ekonomik büyümesini olumlu yönde etkilerken bazılarının da olumsuz yönde etkilediği gözlenmiştir.
