Özet

In this study, the macroeconomic and value-added production performances of Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Turkey between 2008 and 2016 are analyzed with DEMATEL and COPRAS methods. The results show that Turkey and Turkmenistan displayed the best macroeconomic and worst value-added production performances, however, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Azerbaijan are ranked below Turkey and Turkmenistan in terms of macroeconomic performances although they show much better value-added production performances than these two countries. This indicates that Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Azerbaijan cannot utilize their income efficiently, while Turkey and Turkmenistan better utilize their income that they generate through nonproduction fields of activity.
