Özet

Turkish economy has a high growth rate since 2001. However, in these years when the economy has reached high growth rates, the increase in imports has been higher than the increase in exports and in parallel with this fact; the foreign trade balance deficit has increased. The aim of our study is to examine the development of foreign trade in Turkey in the period 2000-2008. In relation with the Inward Processing Regime (IPR) system, which was first implemented in Turkey in 1996, despite the increase in exports, imports also increase. The average share of imports made within the framework of IPR in total exports in the period 1996-2008 was 50%. In this study, the dependence of exports on imports is examined. For this purpose, imported input usage rates of net exporter firms within the framework of IPR in the period 1996-2008 are calculated. In our study, the need for import of sub-sectors which have high shares in the total exports made within the framework of IPR and the change in this need in the mentioned period is discussed. In the conclusion part, we have an evaluation taking the need for an increase in exports in Turkey into consideration. © EuroJournals Publishing, Inc. 2010.
