Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the skill bi- ased technological change (SBTC) hypothesis using 1985-2001 data from Turkish manufacturing indust- ries. The role of market structure in this process will also be explored. Market structure will be proxied by concentration ratios in industries. This paper contribu- tes to the literature in two different ways. Firstly, this is the first study to empirically test SBTC hypothesis for Turkey. Secondly, and more important is to incorpora- te market structure into the investigation of the SBTC hypothesis. The results from this study are as follows: (i) wage differentials have a positive and significant effect on productivity; (ii) this effect does not differ impor- tantly between low and high concentration ratios.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, beceri yanlı teknolojij gelişme hipotezini (BYTG) ve piyasa yapısının bu süreçteki rolünü Türk imalat sanayiinden derlenen veriler ile 1985-2001 dönemi için incelemektir. Piyasa yapısını temsilen endüstri yoğunlaşma oranları kullanılmıştır. Çalışma literature iki açıdan katkı sağlamaktadır. İl- kin, BYTG hipotezi ilk defa Türkiye için test edilmek- tedir. İkincisi ve daha önemlisi BYTG hipotezi piyasa yapısı göz önünde bulundurularak ilk kez incelenmek- tedir. Çalışmadan elde edilen sonuçlar (i) ücret eşit- sizliğinin verimlilik üzerinde pozitif ve anlamlı etkisi olduğunu göstermektedir; (ii) bu etki düşük ve yüksek yoğunlaşma oranına sahip endüstriler için önemli oranda farklılaşmamaktadır.
