Abstract

This paper analyzes the impact of changes in the competitive market
structure on industry productivity growth. The aim of the paper is to
examine the determinants of productivity in Turkish manufacturing
industries, by elaborating particularly at the impact of competition policy
on productivity. Using a newly available panel data in Turkish
manufacturing industry for the years 1992-2001, it is shown that
competition (as measured by lower level of industrial price-cost margin)
enhances productivity growth.
