Abstract

Uluslararası işletmecilik, özellikle son 30 yılda uluslararası yazında oldukça dikkat çeken bir disiplin olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Birçok farklı boyutu içeren uluslararası işletmecilik yazınının odak noktasında son yıllarda gelişmekte olan ülke kökenli işletmelerin uluslararasılaşma süreçleri vardır. Bu bağlamda bu çalışmanın amacı, gelişmekte olan bir ülke olarak Türkiye açısından uluslararası işletmecilik araştırmalarının gelişmekte olan sınırlarını belirlemek, daha iyi anlamak ve alt alanlarındaki eğilimleri ölçmek için var olan ihtiyacı gidermeye çalışmaktır. Çalışmada 1990-2019 yılları aralığında uluslararası işletmecilik alanında Türkiye kökenli ulusal ve uluslararası dergilerde yayınlanan 135 adet tam metin makale içerik analizi yöntemi ile incelenmiştir. Werner’in uluslararası işletmecilik kategorizasyonunun kullanıldığı çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre Türk yazınında uluslararası işletmecilik disiplininde öne çıkan konular; 1990-1999 yılları aralığında uluslararası değişim, 2000-2009 yılları aralığında küresel işletme çevresi ve 2010-2019 yılları aralığında uluslararası işletmelerdir ve alana dair Türk yazınındaki ilgi, kimi sebepler sonucu uluslararası alandaki ilgiye göre oldukça sınırlıdır. Bu sebeple araştırmacıların önünde Türk uluslararası işletmecilik alanında cevaplayabilecekleri birçok soru bulunmaktadır.
