“…In the short run, however, total returns to capital may differ across industries: oligopolistic profits may add to capital rental earnings because of unexpected shocks. We abstract from leisure/labor decisions and population growth so that the variables under household control are consumption 3 The data are discussed in Mercenier (1995a), Mercenier and Yeldan (1996) and Kose and Yeldan (1996).

Turkey has decided to harmonize its tarification structure with that of the European Union. For the country's authorities, this move to a Customs Union is only meant to be the first step toward integration in the European Union. There are signs, however, that political opposition to the government's procompetitive stance may be strong enough to block any further move toward fuller trade liberalization. We show, using applied intertemporal GE analysis, that to be welfare improving, the trade reform would have to be pursued further and nontariff barriers on European trade removed. Failure to do so could be more detrimental to domestic welfare than no reform at all. 0 1997 Elsevier Science B.V. JEL classi$cation: C68; D58; F12; F13; F15; F17; 052

Terms of use: Documents in AbstractThe aim of the paper is to examine the effects on employment of the large-scale structural adjustment programme undertaken by Turkey from the early 1980s onwards.In this respect, we particularly analyse how appropriate the choices of factor intensity after structural adjustment programme have been in the domestic production in comparison with the availability of domestic factor endowment. Our findings show that foreign trade in intermediate goods creates extra use of domestic labour, which can be considered as the labour cost of importing intermediate goods. This is the case in the majority of industries in the pre-and post-liberalisation period in Turkey. However, the capacity of using extra labour as a result of importing intermediate goods appeared to have decreased in the post-liberalisation period.

The technical difficulties associated with building and solving applied general equilibrium (GE) models seem to have distracted our attention from the data. In this article, we forcefully stress that whatever the sophistication of the GE analysis, it is only worth the quality of the supporting data it utilizes. We first highlight an example of a flagrant flaw in officially published input-output data (factor-income shares) by an LDC (Turkey), which many researchers use without question. We then make use of an applied GE model to evaluate the dynamic gains for Turkey from currently debated trade policy options and compare the predictions using conservatively adjusted, rather than official, data on factor shares. We show that the predicted welfare gains are not only of a different order of magnitude, but in some cases, of a different sign; hence, suggesting contradictory policy recommendations.
