Despite the fact that competitiveness of Turkeytowards EU is high in the aggregate level of Low Technology Industries and at about minimum acceptable value in the aggregatelevel of Medium-Low Technology Industries. (iv) Intra Industry Trade between Turkey and EU has increased in almost allindustry groups except Low Technology Industry group. (v) Marginal trade between Turkey and EU in manufacturing industryhas turned out to be Intra-Industrial structure from Inter-Industrial structure since 2002. (vi) Turkey is concentrated on EU inexporting of High, Medium-High and Low Technology Industries aggregate levels and in importing of Medium-HighTechnology and partially High Technology Industries aggregate levels.

Abstract

In this study, Turkey s foreign trade structure and competitiveness against EU(28) is analyzed for the post- Customs Union period (1996 2012) in the context of different technology levels of manufacturing industry. As an analysismethod, Export-Import Technology Composition Index, Concentration Ratio, Revealed Comparative Advantages Index, Intra- Industry Trade Index, Marginal Intra-Industry Trade Index and Sectoral Bilateral Trade Concentration Index techniques areapplied in the study. The results of the mentioned analysis are as follows: (i) In manufacturing industry, weighted average ofTurkey s export to the EU corresponds to Medium-Low Technology level, whereas weighted average of Turkey s import fromthe EU corresponds to Medium-High Technology level. (ii) Turkey s foreign trade with the EU is limited to few countries. (iii) Itwas seen that Turkey doesn t have competitiveness towards EU in the aggregate levels of High Technology Industries andMedium-High Technology Industries during the entire period of the study. Despite the fact that competitiveness of Turkeytowards EU is high in the aggregate level of Low Technology Industries and at about minimum acceptable value in the aggregatelevel of Medium-Low Technology Industries. (iv) Intra Industry Trade between Turkey and EU has increased in almost allindustry groups except Low Technology Industry group. (v) Marginal trade between Turkey and EU in manufacturing industryhas turned out to be Intra-Industrial structure from Inter-Industrial structure since 2002. (vi) Turkey is concentrated on EU inexporting of High, Medium-High and Low Technology Industries aggregate levels and in importing of Medium-HighTechnology and partially High Technology Industries aggregate levels.

Özet

Çalışmada imalat sanayisinin farklı teknoloji düzeyleri bağlamında Türkiyenin AB(28) ile ticaretinin yapısı ve ABkarşısındaki rekabet gücü, Gümrük Birliği sonrası 1996-2012 dönemi için incelenmiştir. Yöntem olarak İhracat-İthalat TeknolojiKompozisyonu İndeksi, Yoğunlaşma Oranı, Açıklanmış Karşılaştırmalı Üstünlük İndeksi, Endüstri İçi Ticaret İndeksi, MarjinalEndüstri İçi Ticaret İndeksi ile Sektörel Bilateral Ticaret Yoğunlaşma İndeksleri kullanılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular şunlardır: (i)İmalat sanayisinde Türkiyenin ABye ihracatının ağırlıklı ortalaması Orta-Düşük Teknoloji düzeyine, ABden ithalatınınağırlıklı ortalaması Orta-İleri Teknoloji düzeyine karşılık gelmektedir. (ii) AB ile yapılan dış ticaret az sayıda ülke üzerindeyoğunlaşmıştır. (iii) Türkiye, AB karşısında İleri Teknoloji Sanayilerin toplamı ve Orta-İleri Teknoloji Sanayilerin toplamıdüzeylerinde ilgili dönemin tamamında rekabet dezavantajına, buna karşın Düşük Teknoloji Sanayilerin toplamı düzeyindeyüksek değerde, Orta-Düşük Teknoloji Sanayilerin toplamı düzeyinde ise sınır değerde rekabet gücüne sahiptir. (iv) Türkiye-ABarasındaki Endüstri İçi Ticaret, Düşük Teknoloji Sanayiler dışındaki gruplarda artmıştır. (v) İmalat sanayisinde Türkiye-ABarasındaki marjinal ticaret, İleri Teknoloji Sanayiler dışındaki gruplarda 2002den itibaren endüstriler arasından endüstri içi biryapıya dönmüştür. (vi) Türkiyenin İleri, Orta-İleri ve Düşük Teknoloji Sanayiler gruplarının toplam düzeyleri ihracatı, Orta-İlerive kısmen İleri Teknoloji Sanayiler grupları toplam düzeyleri ithalatı AB üzerinde yoğunlaşmaktadır.
