Ege
Adaları ve Türkiye sıkı tarihî ve coğrafi bağlara sahiptir. Bu bağlar, sosyal, kültürel
ve ticari etkileşimi kaçınılmaz kılar. Ege Adaları ve Türkiye arasındaki
ticaret büyük potansiyele sahiptir. Ancak, Ege Adaları'ndan gelen yüksek talebe
rağmen, istatistiklerden de anlaşıldığı üzere yeterli ticaret etkileşimi henüz
kurulmamıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Ege Adaları ile Türkiye arasındaki ticaret
potansiyelini analiz etmek ve ticaret engellerini ortaya koymaktır. Belirtilen
amaca ulaşmak için ticaret istatistikleri çeşitli kaynaklardan derlenmiş ve
profesyonellerle görüşmeler yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın bulgularına göre ticari
engeller; ticaret limanlarındaki altyapı ve operasyonlara, limanlardaki az
gelişmişliğe, ticaret ve ulaşımda yer alan işletmeler arasında işbirliğine
dayalı bir kültür birliğinin olmamasına dayanmaktadır. Bu bulgular literatürce
de desteklenmektedir. İlgili sorunlar için önerilen çözümler öneriler başlığı
altında listelenmiştir.

Anahtar Kelimeler

ANALYSING THE TRADE BETWEEN TURKEY AND THE AEGEAN ISLANDS: THE HIDDEN OPPORTUNITIES

Öz

Aegean
Islands and Turkey have strict historical and geographical ties. These ties
make social, cultural and commercial interaction inevitable. The trade between
Aegean Islands and Turkey has great potential. Despite high demands from the
Aegean Islands, according to the relevant statistics no sufficient trade
interaction has been established.  The
aim of this paper is to analyze the trade potential and reveal the barriers of
trade between Aegean Islands and Turkey. To reach this aim, trade statistics
have been compiled from various sources and interviews have been carried out
with the relevant professionals. The findings supported by the related
literature indicate that as trade barriers range from infrastructural and
procedural process at port and port-centric areas, and underdevelopment of
small-sized ports, to lack of a collaborative culture among the various service
providers involved in the trade and transportation interactions. The solutions
proposed for the related problems are listed in the recommendation section of
this study.Aegean
