To a significant extent, this reflects the fact that investors in mature markets have increasingly sought to diversify their assets by investing in emerging markets, often through so-called dedicated emerging market funds (which invest exclusively in emerging markets) or through increased emerging market participation by globally active funds.

Ebook Wage Differentiation in Tradable and Nontradable Sectors: Evidence from Turkey

Submitted by puput on Tue, 03/30/2010 - 03:11

Turkey has undergone various structural transformations towards higher integration with the world economy since the 1980s. With this respect, economic priorities have been changed and new mechanisms have been take place with regards to new priorities. Whereas production of goods that could compete with the world markets has been increasing, in the meantime production for domestic markets loses its priority. This is due to some distributional consequences 0f economic integration. Economic resources are reallocated from import substituting sectors to export oriented sectors because of the importance given more to produce goods that could compete with world markets. Meanwhile, this situation leads to an increase in employment capacity and income generating process of export oriented sectors while import substituting sectors have been declining.

In this paper we divide all economic activities into two main sectors namely, tradable and nontradable sectors. Tradable sector have two main parts as exportable and importable goods. Since tradable sector is integrated to the world economy, it is influenced from the changing conditions of the world economy. Accordingly, the price conditions of the tradable sector are determined by the world markets and the government has no power on the price level of this sector. On the contrary, nontradable sectors are not stick to world economy as they produce goods for domestic markets and therefore government has power on this sector and could be able to implement separate (her own) income policies.
