The construction sector in Turkey has been a prominent
sector recently with respect to the infrastructure investments and housing
constructions. It is widely accepted that the construction industry is
considered to be one of the main drivers of the overall economy due to its
strong inter-industrial linkages. The growth rate of construction sector in
Turkey has shown a trend above the average GDP growth rate almost in each
period after the 2000 era. In this study, the updated input-output tables
constructed by the World Input-Output Database (WIOD) project from 2000-2014
are employed and backward-forward linkages and several multipliers are also
calculated by using these input-output tables. In this study, it is aimed to
discuss whether the construction industry can be considered as the driver of
the economy.

Türkiye’de inşaat sektörü, gerek altyapı yatırımları,
gerekse konut inşaatları çerçevesinden bakıldığında, son yıllarda öne çıkan
sektörler arasında yer almaktadır. Genel olarak inşaat sektörü, güçlü sektörel
bağlantıları nedeniyle ekonominin sürükleyici sektörlerinden biri olarak kabul
edilmektedir. Ülkemizde 2000 sonrası dönem ele alındığında, sektörün büyüme
hızı hemen her dönemde GSYİH büyüme hızının üzerinde bir seyir izlemiştir. Bu
çalışmada, World Input-Output Database (WIOD) projesinden alınan
güncellenmiş 2000-2014 yılları arası girdi-çıktı tabloları kullanılmıştır. Bu
girdi-çıktı tablolarından ileri ve geri bağlantılar ile çıktı, gelir, istihdam
gibi çeşitli çarpanlar hesaplanmıştır. Çalışmada girdi-çıktı analizi sonucu
hesaplanan yapısal parametreler ışığında, inşaat sektörünün ekonominin
lokomotif sektörü olarak görülebilme ihtimalini tartışmak amaçlanmaktadır.
