Abstract

One of the main sources of economic growth is the increase in stocks of production factor, as well as technological development. Technology is rapidly advancing with production factors such as labor force and capital. Investments in high technology products will ensure that a significant competitive power both in domestic and foreign markets. Thanks to the achievement of competitive power in this sector, productivity, growth and innovation will increase. In this study, the relationship between productivity and competitiveness for Turkey, covering the years 1995-2017 has been analyzed by two-step analysis. Firstly, the competitiveness of high-tech sectors has been analyzed by RCA index. Secondly, LM Unit Root analysis including structural breaks has been applied and the long-term relationship between competitiveness and productivity was estimated by Maki Cointegration Analysis. According to the results, the competition power in high-tech sectors in Turkey is insufficient but the increasing in the competition power affect productivity positively

Özet

Ekonomik büyümenin temel kaynaklarından biri, üretim faktörü stoklarındaki ve niteliklerindeki artış diğeri de teknolojik gelişmedir. İş gücü ve sermaye gibi üretim faktörleri artmakta ve bununla birlikte teknoloji de hızla ilerlemektedir. Bu kapsamda yüksek teknoloji ürünlerine yapılacak yatırımlar hem iç hem de dış piyasada önemli bir rekabet gücünün elde edilmesini sağlayacaktır. Ayrıca bu sektörde belirli bir rekabet gücünün elde edilmesi ile verimlilik, büyüme ve yenilik gibi alanlarda artış meydana gelecektir. Çalışmada, Türkiye için verimlilik ve rekabet gücü arasındaki ilişki 1995-2017 yıllarını kapsayan iki aşamalı analiz ile incelenmiştir. Birinci analizde, RCA endeksi kullanılarak, yüksek teknoloji içeren sektörlerin rekabet gücü hesaplanmıştır. İkinci analizde ise, öncelikle yapısal kırılmaların dahil edildiği LM Birim Kök analizi uygulanmıştır. Sonrasında rekabet gücü ve verimlilik arasındaki uzun dönemli ilişkinin varlığı Maki Eşbütünleşme Analizi kullanılarak tahmin edilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonucuna göre Türkiye’nin yüksek teknoloji içeren sektörlerdeki rekabet gücü yetersiz olmakla birlikte rekabet gücünün artması verimlilik üzerinde pozitif yönde bir etki yapmaktadır.
