Public Policy and the Turkish Construction Sector

Abstract

This article discusses public policy as it has been adapted to the Turkish construction sector. The problems related to current policy are discussed along with their remedies. The power struggle that exists among the entities representing the government and the private sector are investigated. The lack of trust that exists in the construction sector is also evaluated as a key roadblock to quality management. In the recommendations section, solutions to such problems are proposed. Overall, the intent of this article is to elevate the quality of Turkey’s construction sector by eliminating and/or rehabilitating existing public policy.
