Abstract

In the global
world, the topic requiring development in technology has a great
importance.  Countries present very
different perspectives in terms of the capacity of producing and obtaining
technology. A lot of factors such as geographical position, cultural structure,
educational system of the countries lie behind these differences. Technology
policies of a country at macro level affect economic growth, efficiency,
employment, intercountry income distribution, foreign trade and cyclical
fluctuates and economic policy while effects of the same at micro level appear
in cost and price structure. Technology policies play an effective role in
educational system, understanding of society, social structure, tradition of
industry and advanced technology use and habits of production and experience of
all of them and a lot of other parameters. Besides, the technology policies
applied in Turkey are very important for the activation of the current values.
The concept of competition based on producing more consistent policies,
accelerating, and with respect to this, rapid technological development for the
future from the inferences to be made by examining the policies applied is
gaining a new dimension, and the concept of competition based on cheap labor
and natural resources is substituted by production technologies competitive in
international markets. Turkey, by closely following the developments regarding
technology within the country or in the world, should be able to readjust its
technology policy depending on the developments and also provide its technology
policies to be forward looking, long and stable. The objective of the study is
to reveal how the technological progress will be possible with the progressions
in the subtopics to be determined by means of the analysis of the concepts
regarding technology and detection of their importance.
