3 LIBERALISMS: 1983-2013

3 (so called) liberal parties won the elections in 1983, 1993, and 2002 (leader changed in 2003).

Turkey had an isolated economy. It was a mixture. Mostly state protection of domestic producers and import substitution.

Turkey was wanted to be integrated into the global market like other underdeveloped or developing countries.

3 liberalism was the result of this forcing.

Rural population decreased from 45 % to 30 % of total population.

Industrialization had begun in 1960s, but realized in these 3 periods.

Foreign trade became 50 billion dollars per years. 70 % of it manufacture goods, but total exports was less than 50 billion dollars, ie montage industry was the real situation.

Total public debt became 325 billion dollars.

Unemployment became 20 %.

So this is the eral panorama of liberalisms. In Turkey too.
