    During last two decades, the world has experienced what is called the "globalization" trend. Currently, more and more companies around the world engage in business activities in other countries and in international markets.
    Competition intensifies as the number of companies emerge in business. For existing companies, lowering costs, increasing market share, and globalizing become competitive tools. This is where Foreign Direct Investment (F.D.I.) comes in play as a way to increase comparative advantage and to increase business potentials for each company. In contrast to what some believe, F.D.I. has become a major factor and fact of life for every single country in the world.
    In this thesis, Foreign Direct Investment"s effects on Turkish economy are explored. However, rather than solely concentrating on this subject upfront, the following format is followed throughout the thesis:
    Chapters one and two provide a background of F.D.I.; it is defined, major F.D.I. theories and its advantages are explained.
    Chapter three provides data to determine F.D.I. patterns around the world. This is required to recognize opportunities for the Turkish model.
    Chapter four, the main part of the thesis, provides background information and explains the historical development of F.D.I. in Turkey. The author provides interpretation and explanation as a result of intimacy with the subject, the country and the culture. In following sections of this chapter, incentives provided by Turkey and F.D.I.'s effects on Turkey in integrating with EECD (European Economic Community) are explored and explained. An important section of the chapter is a survey of Turkish middle and upper level managers to find out the general perception of Turkish people of F.D.I. in Turkey.
    Chapter five provides a conclusion that is developed throughout the thesis.
    Throughout the thesis, F.D.I. is explored considering developing countries, since Turkey is a major country in this category.
