Abstract

When core countries are compared to peripheral countries, including Turkey, in the world capitalist system, it is cleary seen that peripheral countries have relatively undervalued currencies, lower comparative price levels and wages. This situation usually leads to unequal exchange for peripheral countries in international trade with core countries. This study aims to reveal the effects of unequal exchange that Turkey, as one of the peripheral countries, has experienced while doing trades with those core countries. In order to measure those effects, a method based on deviation of the market exchange rate from PPP exchange rate, which was first proposed by Kohler, is used. According to the findings in this study, the loss incurred by Turkey due to unequal exchange was estimated total PPP $477,8 billion regarding the period between 1980-2010

Özet

Dünya kapitalist sisteminde merkez ülkeleri ile aralarında Türkiye'nin de bulunduğu çevre ülkeleri karşılaştırıldığında, çevre ülkelerinin görece daha düşük değerli para birimlerine, daha düşük karşılaştırmalı fiyat ve ücret düzeylerine sahip oldukları görülmektedir. Bu durum çevre ülkeleri açısından merkez ülkeleri ile yaptıkları uluslararası ticarette eşitsiz mübadeleye zemin hazırlamaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, bir çevre ülkesi olarak Türkiye'nin merkez ülkeleri ile yaptığı ticarette maruz kaldığı eşitsiz mübadele etkisinin ölçülerek ortaya konulmasıdır. Bu çerçevede ilk kez Köhler tarafından geliştirilen ve piyasa döviz kurunun SGP döviz kurundan sapmasını temel alan hesaplama yönteminden yararlanılmıştır. Çalışmada elde edilen bulgulara göre, Türkiye'nin eşitsiz mübadeleye bağlı olarak maruz kaldığı kayıp 1980-2010 dönemi itibariyle toplam 477,8 milyar SGP $ olarak tahmin edilmiştir
