HEGEMONIC TRADE POLICIES OF THE US AND THEIR EFFECTS ON TURKEY

Abstract

Hegemony describes the dominance of a country or a person over others and Hegemonic Stability Theory is derived from this notion. According to this theory, a hegemon country is necessary to obtain and maintain a globally open and stable economy. The USA has become the hegemon power of the world after the World War II. Trade policies are the main tools that a hegemon power uses to create pressure on the others. The USA used this tool also on Turkey by imposing arms embargo after the Cyprus Peace Operation in 1974. Donald Trump elected as the president in 2017 and he started a global trade war by increasing the tariffs. However, the numbers show that the USA continues to import from Turkey increasingly even though the high tariffs have been imposed since 2018. In this study, the cointegration relationship between the total value of Turkey’s exports to the USA and the average weighted rate of most favored nation tariffs (MFN) applied to Turkey by the USA are analyzed for 1991 – 2019 period. The results revealed that there is no cointegration relationship between the Turkey’s exports to the USA and the MFN tariffs imposed to Turkey by the USA.
