GENİŞLEYEN AVRUPA BİRLİĞİNDE BÖLGESEL KALKINMA VE ŞİRKET İÇİ AĞLAR: DOĞRUDAN YABANCI SERMAYE YATIRIMININ ROLÜ

Abstract

Bu katkı, son on yılda (2004, 2007) Berlin Duvarı’nın yıkılmasından sonra Avrupa Birliği’ne katılan Orta ve Doğu Avrupa ülkelerinin ekonomilerinin yeniden yapılandırılması ve uzmanlaşmasına yönelik doğrudan yabancı yatırımının (DYY) rolünü ele alıyor. DYY, genişleyen Avrupa’da yeniden yapılanma ve uzmanlık kazanmalarında önemli bir rol oynamıştır. Hala küçük hacimli olmasına rağmen, özellikle otomotiv, hizmetler ve finans sektörlerinde olmak üzere birçok sektörün yeniden yapılandırılmasında belirleyici bir rol oynadı. Birkaç faktör, yabancı sermaye girişini kolaylaştırdı. Her şeyden önce, Batı Avrupa pazarlarına yakınlık, artan bir iç talebin memnuniyeti, düşük maliyet ve nitelikli iş gücünü ve varlıkların düşük fiyatla elde edilebilmesi bu çerçevedeki önemli faktörlerdendir. Günümüzde bu şirketler finasallaşma, istihdam, ihracat ve pazar payı açısından ilkler arasındadırlar. Bunlar bu ekonomilerin çeşitli bölgesel değer zincirlerine entegrasyonuna katkıda bulunmuşlardır. DYY’nin muazzam varlığı, bu ekonomilerin şimdi yabancı sermayeye ne derecede bağımlı olduğu da dahil olmak üzere bir dizi soruyu gündeme getirmektedir.

REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND INTRA-FIRM NETWORKS IN THE ENLARGED EUROPEAN UNION: THE ROLE OF FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT

Abstract

This contribution addresses the role of foreign direct investment (FDI) in the restructuring and specialization of the economies of Central and Eastern European countries after the fall of the Berlin Wall which, over the past decade (2004,2007) have joined the European Union. FDI have played an important role in their restructuring and specialization within the enlarged Europe. Although still small in volume, FDI played a decisive role in the restructuring of several sectors, notably in the automotive, services and finance sectors. Several factors have facilitated the entry of foreign capital. First of all, an effect of proximity to the western European markets, the satisfaction of a growing domestic demand, low cost and good qualification of the workforce and low price of acquistion of assets are some significant factors in this respect. Today these companies are among the very first in terms of capitalization, employment, exports, market share. They have contributed to the integration of these economies into several regional value chains. The massive presence of FDI raises a number of questions, including the extent to which these economies depend now on foreign capital.
