    FROM MONEY TRANSFERS TO MEAL TABLES: UNRAVELLING THE NEXUS OF REMITTANCES, FOOD SECURITY, AND ECONOMIC GROWTH IN TURKEY

    Ari, Yılmaz Onur; Zeneli, Fjona

    The link between remittances, food security, and economic growth is a complex and important element of the economic development of the society. The study aims to explore the causality relationships between Remittances, Food Security and Economic Growth in the Turkish economy. The period of study from 1974 to 2018 and annual data of Remittances, Calories intake (as a proxy for the food security) and Economic Growth are used in the framework of time series. Techniques such as Zivot-Andrews (ZA) unit root, Toda-Yamamoto (TY), Breitung-Candelon (BCG), and Hatemi-J tests are used to detect the causality assessing the direction of it. The main findings consist of: (i) the presence of cointegration of rank two among series, the lack of linear TY time domain causality; (ii) the presence of BCG spectral causality from Calories intake to Growth only in medium period at 10% significance and, (iii) the presence of asymmetric causality from Remittances to Growth in positive changes, from Growth to Calories intake in negative changes and from Calories intake to Remittances in positive changes respectively at 1,5, and 1% significance. These results provide policymakers with valuable insights into the complexity nature of the relationship among remittances, food security, and economic growth, guiding them in designing effective strategies for poverty alleviation, sustainable development, and inclusive growth.

    Concentration in Turkish automotive sector: An application on passenger and light commercial vehicles

    Ari, Yılmaz Onur; Kaynak, Selahattin

    Concentration means that production and pricing are controlled by a few firms in a sector. Number and size of firms which operate in an industry are crucial factors for determining concentration level. The most popular ways to measure the market concentration level are N-Firm Concentration Rate, which is calculated a sum of market shares of the biggest firms in a market, and Herfindahl-Hirschman Index, which is usedfor determining the uncompetitive behaviors in an industry.In this study concentration level of Turkish automotive sector was analyzed through N-Firm Concentration Rates (CR4 and CRg) and Herfindahl-Hirschman Index.As a result of the analysis, high levels of concentration were seen in domestic passenger cars and domestic light commercial vehicles sectors in CR4, while domestic and imported light commercial sectors in CRg. -In Herfindahl-Hirschman analysis, it's seen that a monopolistic structure obtains in domestic passenger and light commercial vehicles, but low concentration rates in imported passenger and light commercial vehicles. As a result of this situation there is a more competitive structure in imported passenger and light commercial vehicles.
