Abstract

Nowadays industry which contributes to development of
countries is one of the most crucial sectors, it seems to maintain its importance.  The rapid advancements in technology play a
crucial role in increasing product range and transporting of products. Thus,
globalization gathers pace.  Within this
period, Iron and Steel sector which is a sub-sector of industry sector provides
competitive power to countries and thus these countries get ahead of other
countries.



The aim of this study is to test the effects of steel
production of global raw steel production in global raw steel production on
global competitiveness index, economic growth and employment by panel data
analysis. In this context, the data belonging to the years 2009-2016 will be
tested by panel data analysis and the extent to which iron steel production
affects these variables will be investigated. Second-generation panel unit root
tests were used because of the cross-sectional dependence in the series.
According to the results of the study, a causality from total steel production
to economic growth has been determined. Then, according to the PMG estimator
applied, there was a short and long-term relationship between total steel
production and economic growth. The 1 unit increase in total steel production
increases the economic growth in the long term by 0.104 and in the short term
by 1.386 units.

Demir-Çelik Sektörünün Küresel Rekabet, Ekonomik Büyüme Ve İşsizlik Üzerine Etkileri

Abstract

Günümüzde
ülkelerin kalkınmasına katkıda bulunan sanayi, geçmişte olduğu gibi bugün de en
önemli sektörlerden biridir. Teknolojideki hızlı gelişmeler, ürün yelpazesinin
genişlemesinde ve ürünlerin taşınma hacmini artırmada çok önemli bir rol
oynamaktadır. Bu süreçte sanayi sektörünün bir alt sektörü olan Demir Çelik
sektörü, ülkelere rekabet gücü sağlamakta ve bu sayede söz konusu ülkeler diğer
ülkelerin önüne geçmektedir.

Bu
çalışmanın amacı, dünya ham çelik üretiminde ilk 20 sırada yer alan ülkelerin
çelik üretiminin küresel rekabet endeksi, ekonomik büyüme ve istihdam üzerine
etkilerini panel veri analiziyle test etmektir. Bu kapsamda, 2009-2016
yıllarına ait veriler panel veri analiziyle test edilerek demir çelik
üretiminin bu değişkenlere hangi ölçüde etki ettiği araştırılacaktır. Serilerde
yatay kesit bağımlılığı olduğundan ikinci nesil panel birim kök testleri
kullanılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucuna göre, toplam çelik üretiminden ekonomik
büyümeye doğru bir nedensellik tespit edilmiştir. Daha sonra uygulanan PMG
tahmincisine göre de toplam çelik üretimi ile ekonomik büyüme arasında kısa ve
uzun dönemli bir ilişki görülmüştür.
Toplam çelik
üretimindeki 1 birimlik artış ekonomik büyümeyi uzun dönemde 0.104 ve kısa dönemde
1.386 birim arttırmaktadır.
