Financial footprint of development finance institutions in the restructuring of Turkey’s agri-food sector
Over the past decade, transformations in the agri-food sector – catalysed by the 2008 global financial and food crises – have intensified the financialisation of agriculture. While this process has received scholarly attention, the role of development finance institutions (DFIs) remains under-researched. This paper addresses this gap by examining the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD)’s influence on Turkey’s agribusiness sect…
The feminist political economy of agricultural mechanization
From domestic power to international subordination
This article focuses on the increasing trend of corporate bond issuance by the nonfinancial sector in emerging capitalist economies (ECEs). Contrary to prevailing views that ECE firms predominantly engage in speculative carry trade operations, our analysis, informed by firm-level data, indicates a strategic utilisation of bond proceeds particularly for financial strengthening through a reduction of short-term debt and interest expenses, as well a…
Gendered Dynamics of Rural Livelihood Diversification
This study examines the gendered dynamics of rural livelihood diversification in tea farming communities in Rize, Turkey, with the onset of neo-liberal policies. Drawing on extensive fieldwork, the research explores how migration, access to education, and land ownership intersect with the unique characteristics of tea farming, such as its seasonal harvest cycle and labour-intensity, to shape gendered labour division. It highlights how migration i…
Brewing Contradictions
This study reevaluates the perceived decline of state involvement in agriculture and examines the contradictions of state intervention within neoliberal contexts through a commodity-specific analysis of tea production in Turkey. Based on fieldwork in Rize, which produces 65% of the country's tea and plays a central role in a nation with the highest per capita tea consumption globally, the study highlights the Turkish state's contradictory approac…
Introduction to the Special Issue on Covid and Capitalism
Assessing financialization under international financial subordination
This article investigates the changing financial behaviour of Brazilian and Turkish non-financial corporations (NFCs) in the context of international financial subordination. Recent empirical evidence shows that emerging capitalist economies' (ECEs) NFCs have increased their holdings of very short-term financial assets (mainly cash), whilst borrowing heavily from (international) financial markets and banks. Drawing on an extensive mixed-method st…
Cross-country evidence on the link between job security and housing credit
Financialization in Turkey
The last decade has witnessed a considerable rise in consumer credit in developing countries. This study offers a political economy approach to an analysis of the rise in consumer debt by drawing on the case of Turkey. It argues that the recent rise in consumer credit is historically unique and it needs to be analysed by considering the demand- and supply-side determinants and contextualizing them in the many transformations that have occurred in…
