The Effects of Internatıonalızatıon of Productıon on the Turkısh Manufacturıng Industry: An Applıed Study on Foreıgn-Invested Manufacturer-Exporters
(2018) Ergüven, Emre
This study investigates the effects of the transnational corporations’ organization of the production all over the world on the Turkish manufacturing industry (MI) and determines how the Turkish MI is articulated to this global organization. To this aim, it analysed foreign-invested manufacturers in the top-1000 exporters list of the Turkish Exporters Assembly. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with the senior officials of the fifteen out of 101 firms who accepted their titles being revealed. Consequently, internationalization of production reinforced foreigndependent structure of the Turkish MI; and Turkey, an intermediate zone between advanced Western countries and cheap-labour Asian countries, seems as backyard of Europe: R&D units are few, imported inputs are high, value-added is low, there is specialization in the particular stages of the medium-low and medium-high technology production, relatively qualified and cheap intermediate staff is abundant, the highest part of exports is made to Europe, the MI is part of the global production and supply networks. And more importantly, this study shows that it is no more possible for Turkish MI to compete on the basis of cheap labour; and the contradictory policies to overcome this situation are far from increasing the competitive power of the Turkish MI.
Production and Marketing Structure of Large Scale Forestry Products Industry Enterprises in Turkey
(2011) Aksu, B.; Hüseyin Koç, K.; Kurtoǧlu, A.
In Turkey, a country with 21.2 million ha of forest land, it is evident that the processed forest products have not been able to be developed to realize their potential with regards to the exports possibilities. It is obvious that the situation is to the disadvantage of Turkey in terms of the trading equilibrium when the exports and imports figures are examined. According to the results of the research carried out locally with respect to the Turkish Forest Products Industry, the emphasized problems emerge as the misapplication of incentives, the disability to catch up with the technological innovations, problems regarding raw material quality, undercapitalization, lack of qualified personnel, etc. By the help of this study which had been planned to cover the whole Turkish Forest Products Industry; the target is to reveal the structural situations of the large scale businesses in Turkey in the first few years of the 20th century, where modern management principles are assumed to be applied. The research had been finalized with the comments made upon the results of the questionnaires gathered through mostly faceto-face interviews with 415 large scale forest product firms where it was assumed that contemporary management principles and technological developments were applied relatively easier. As the questionnaire study was applied by the researchers themselves directly, it was also supported through observations. © 2011 Academic Journals.
Rapid First-Stage Tests of On-Ship Infection
(Springer Heidelberg, 2017) Jerome, Carlos; Howard, Lawrence A.; Uzel, Ezgi; Androulidakis, Jameela R.
Protection against on-ship infectious disease-whether due to mishap or to harmful purpose-faces special situational problems. Sometimes, when infection levels on board have reached threshold levels, emergency actions are required. Often, the most thorough strategies for responding to threat are not feasible. A rapid first-stage test (RFT) is a fast, minimally invasive procedure used to rule out from possible infection a large percentage of an infection-threatened group. Prevention and control of on-ship infection need to combine various interconnected tactics. When timely criterion tests are not possible, the medical team must adopt fast alternative measures. The methods used to summarize protection against on-ship infectious agents included a scientific literature review and a web search. The fields of the review were maritime, health, and technology sources. Special attention was paid to material dealing with risks and threats of on-ship penetration by infectious agents, on-ship infection prevalence thresholds, and rapid diagnostic screens. The Bayes rule and the law of large numbers were applied to the analysis, for large on-ship populations, of RFT indications of crossing of an infection prevalence threshold. The increasing risk of serious on-ship infection-either accidental or purposeful-calls for a multi-layered protection approach. RFTs are a key part of the outer layer of such a defense. Well-designed and well-administered RFTs provide several advantages for defense against on-ship infection: low-cost, non-invasive, fast, and focuses on a drastically smaller number of infection possibilities.
What Drives Non-Performing Loans? Evidence from Emerging and Advanced Economies During Pre- and Post-Global Financial Crisis
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019) Kuzucu, Narman; Kuzucu, Serpil
We examine the determinants of non-performing loans (NPLs) in emerging countries compared to advanced countries during pre- and post-global financial crisis using dynamic panel estimation techniques. We analyze the effects of banking sector-specific factors and macroeconomic factors on NPLs utilizing a panel data set of emerging and advanced countries. Our results suggest that real GDP growth is the main determinant that affects the NPL ratio, and NPLs exhibit high persistence in emerging and advanced economies both for the pre- and post-crisis periods. We find that exchange rate and foreign direct investments (FDI) become statistically significant for emerging countries after the crisis period.
