Abstract

This study examines the effects of Türkiye's export strategies on economic growth in the globalising world economy and the role of human capital in this process. The relationship between human capital, exports, imports, fixed capital investments and economic growth in Türkiye is analysed for the period 1960-2023 based on the endogenous growth model. The aim of this study is to empirically examine the causality relationship between exports and human capital in Türkiye within the framework of the endogenous growth model. The results obtained from the cointegration analysis and causality tests applied in the study are consistent with the assumptions of endogenous growth theories in Türkiye. The study reveals that exports, imports, human and fixed capital are important elements of economic growth.
