Abstract

The purpose of the present study is to theoretically determine how technology shocks and particularly external technology shocks affect the functioning of real economy within the framework of Reel Business Cycles Theory and to come up with significant statistical and economic empirical findings concerning the growth tends of 12 emerging countries including Turkey and external technology shocks they have experienced. Within the context of the present study, 12 emerging countries for which the required data were available for 1980-2008 period out of the 35 countries determined as the emerging countries by Dow Jones were included in the sampling. The findings obtained from the analyses show that the emerging countries are foreign investment and technology dependent to a great extent and they are considerably affected from the technology shocks defined as external. In addition, it was concluded that investment-specific technology changes have the power to account for high ratio of the changes seen in short-term conjectural movements.

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Reel Konjonktür Teorisi (RBC) ekseninde teknolojik şokların özelliklede dışsal teknolojik şokların reel ekonominin işleyişini ne şekilde etkilediğini teorik olarak tespit etmek ve Türkiyenin de dahil olduğu 12 gelişmekte olan ülkenin (GOÜ) veya başka bir deyişle Yükselen Ekonominin büyüme trendleri ile dışsal teknolojik şoklar arasında ampirik boyutta iktisadi ve istatistiki anlamda anlamlı bir ilişki olup olmadığını araştırmaktır. Çalışma kapsamında; Dow Jones tarafından Mayıs 2010 tarihinde belirlenmiş olan 35 yükselen piyasa ekonomisinden çalışmanın incelemiş olduğu 1980- 2008 dönemine ilişkin sağlıklı verilere ulaşılabilen 12 ülke örneklem grubu olarak belirlenmiştir. Elde edilen analiz bulguları GOÜlerin önemli ölçüde dış kaynak ve teknoloji bağımlısı oldukları ve dışsal olarak tanımlanmış teknolojik şoklardan da önemli ölçüde etkilendiklerini göstermektedir. Ayrıca çalışma kapsamında yatırıma özgü teknolojik değişmelerin kısa dönemde konjonktür hareketlerindeki değişmenin önemli bir kısmını açıklama gücüne sahip olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
