Ali14aIs Turkey turning its face away from Japan to China and Korea? evidence from trade relations  aXX1, 1 (spring 2016),:45-62  aDatos del autor.  aThe economic relations between Turkey and Japan have recently been on the decline. This is partly a reflection of the ongoing economic transformation in the East Asian region, where China and Korea have caught up with Japanese industries and technology in most sectors. Korean and Chinese firms have gained competitive power over Japanese firms, which have traditionally been champions of manufacturing. Partly as a consequence of the ailing Japanese economy, Turkish industry has recently turned to Korea and China as sources of industrial supplies. This paper shows the extent to which the Turkish economy has become more dependent on industrial inputs from Korea and China at the expense of the declining importance of Japan. This is discussed in conjunction with the ongoing free trade negotiations between Turkey and Japan. 7aRELACIONES ECONOMICAS 7aECONOMIA 7aEMPRESAS 7aINDUSTRIAS 7aLIBRE COMERCIO 7aTURQUIA 7aJAPON 7aCHINA 7aCOREA0 tPerceptions Journal of International Affairs.w020828
