Abstract:

 In todays world, where the conditions of competition are not fully established, when countries intervene in foreign trade in line with their interests, they can make some gains to the detriment of other countries that cannot react. Strategic trade policies STP argue that by incentivizing firms, higher levels of rents generated in global oligopolistic market structures can be transferred to the country. This study examines the extent to which Turkeys export subsidies affect the market share of global exports KIPP by taking into account the data for the period 2006-2020. Through the model constructed, the relationship between the KIPP and export incentives, exchange rate and foreign income is analyzed. The ADF unit root test was utilized to determine whether it is appropriate to use the data in the study together. Johansen cointegration test was used to determine the long-term relationship. The analysis revealed that there is a long-term relationship. In addition, export incentives are found to have a statistically significant and positive effect on the KIPP as expected in the STP theory. However, a reasonable long-term policy that will benefit the majority of countries should be the development of measures to adapt to global competition through free trade.

 Rekabetin koşullarının tam olarak oluşmadığı günümüz dünyasında, ülkeler çıkarları doğrultusunda dış ticarete müdahale ettiğinde herhangi bir reaksiyon ortaya koyamayan diğer ülkelerin aleyhine birtakım kazanımlar sağlayabilmektedir. Stratejik ticaret politikaları STP, firmaların teşvik edilmesi ile küresel oligopolistik piyasa yapılarında oluşan rantların daha yüksek düzeyde ülkeye aktarılmasının mümkün olduğunu ileri sürmektedir. Bu çalışma, Türkiyenin uyguladığı ihracat desteklerinin küresel ihracattan alınan pazar payını KİPP hangi seviyede etkilendiğini 2006-2020 arası verileri dikkate alarak incelemektedir. Oluşturulan model vasıtasıyla; KİPP ile ihracat teşvikleri, döviz kuru ve yabancı ülke geliri arasındaki ilişki incelenmiştir. Çalışmadaki verilerin birlikte kullanılmasının uygun olup olmadığının tespiti adına ADF birim kök testinden yararlanılmıştır. Uzun vadede oluşabilecek ilişkiyi tespit etmek için Johansen eşbütünleşme testi kullanılmıştır. Yapılan analizde uzun vadeli bir ilişkinin mevcut olduğu ortaya koyulmuştur. Bunun yanında, ihracat teşviklerinin istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir şekilde ve STP teorisinde beklendiği gibi pozitif yönde KİPPi etkilediği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bununla birlikte ülkelerin çoğunluğunun faydasına olacak uzun vadeli makul politika, serbest ticaretle küresel rekabete uyum sağlayacak tedbirlerin geliştirilmesi şeklinde olmalıdır.
