Do international trade and labor standards ameliorate synchronously?Estimation of labor demand elasticity in Turkey

Öz:

Bu çalışmanın geniş anlamdaki amacı, Türkiye‟de ticaretin serbestleştirilmesinin ardından işgücü piyasasının karşı karşıya kaldığı zorlukları incelemek, bu bağlamda özellikle ticarete konu olan sektörlerde işgücüne yönelik talep esnekliğinde değişiklik yaşanıp yaşanmadığını sorgulamaktır. Çalışmada 1984- 2001 yılları arası dönem ele alınarak, ihracatçı ve ithalat-rekabetçi sektörler için işgücü talep esnekliği hesaplanmıştır. Böylelikle, uluslararası ticareti arttırmaya yönelik stratejiler ile işgücüne yönelik talep arasında bir bağlantı veya dikotomi olup olmadığı ortaya konulmaya çalışılmıştır.

Uluslararası ticaret ve çalışma koşulları eş zamanlı olarak gelişme gösterebilir mi? Türkiye’deki işgücü talep esnekliğinin tahmini

Öz:

The broad objective of this paper is to examine the challenges faced by the Turkish labor market in the aftermath of the so-called trade liberalization period, particularly questioning whether a prominent change in pattern can be observed in labor demand elasticity. In the study, labor demand elasticities in the exporting and import-competing sectors are estimated based on research undertaken between the years 1984 to 2001. Thus, the study looks for a vigorous link, or a dichotomy - if there is - between the strategies to stimulate international trade and the demand for labor.
