A research report submitted to graduate School of Social Sciences of University of the Witwatersrand in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master International Relations in Department of International Relations University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg
February 2017 / Manufacturing and International trade are key concept between advanced and developing
countries for growth. However, developing countries on the path of industrialization are
perceived to have a gloomy future regarding their trade patterns and strategies because these
countries are schizophrenic about the liberalization of the trade policy to protect their industry.
The purpose of this research report is to analyze this fogginess on the path of newly
industrialized countries by observing the similarities and differences between Turkey and South
Africa export patterns and strategies. The study covers South African and Turkey export
conducted only in 2015. Both countries’ patterns and strategies are analyzed with data based
descriptive statistic embodied by the author. We use various indexes from the literature and
develop some original indexes as our own contributions. We classified the export commodities
based on: (1) Natural Resource, (2) Low-Tech Manufacturing, (3) High-Tech Manufacturing. / MT2018
