Since the financial crisis of 2000 and 2001 the Turkish economy has undergone considerable change and some improvement. This book gives a detailed examination of the neo-liberal restructuring that has taken place and the challenges the economy still faces, providing a comparative perspective on recent reforms and the position of Turkey in the global economy.
This book examines all major aspects of the post-crisis economic performance of the Turkish economy. Major sectors of the economy such as agriculture and manufacturing along with key issues such as privatization, export growth, developments in the labour market, poverty and social exclusion are analysed in detail. The authors consider Turkish performance from a comparative perspective, drawing attention to its similarities with the experience of other emerging markets.
Providing an insight into the major difficulties of post-crisis adjustment, sustainability of the gains achieved so far and the challenges that lie ahead, this book will be of interest to academics and scholars in the fields of International Political Economy and Globalization Studies, Middle East Studies and Development Studies, as well as having significance for practitioners in emerging markets.
"The chapters taken together provide a comprehensive assessment by some of the leading analysts of the Turkish economy. They present a balanced picture pointing towards significant achievements combined with enduring weaknesses and fragilities which are likely to pose serious economic, political and social challenges in the coming years. Providing an insight into the major difficulties of post-crisis adjustment, sustainability of the gains achieved so far and the challenges that lay ahead, this book will be of interest to academics and scholars in the fields of International Political Economy and Globalization Studies, Middle East Studies and Development Studies, as well as having significance for practitioners in developing countries." -M. Mustafa Erdoğdu, Marmara University, New Perspectives on Turkey, 2010
"Turkey and the Global Economy offers a valuable contribution to the political economy literature on emerging economies... Everyone interested in Turkish political economy, scholars, practitioners and students, should read this book. Its contributions are particularly pertinent in the context of the current financial crisis, which has reminded the world of the importance not only of institutions, but also of good institutions." - ISIK OZEL, Sabanci University, Istanbul; South European Society and Politics, 2011
