Abstract :The aim of this study is to measure the competitiveness of Newly Industrialized Countries (NICs) in high-technology manufacturing industries. For this purpose, Ballassa\\\'s Revealed Comparative Advantage (BRCA) index, a static comparison, was first calculated. Subsequently, the dynamic comparison of the change in the Normalized Revealed Comparative Advantage (NRCA) index cross-country variation was calculated. The analysis revealed that India in \\\'\\\'basic pharmaceutical products and pharmaceutical preparations\\\'\\\'; the Philippines in \\\'\\\'computer, electronics, and optical products\\\'\\\'; and Brazil in \\\'\\\' manufacturing of air and spacecraft and related machinery\\\'\\\' had the highest competitiveness. It is concluded that Türkiye\\\'s overall competitive advantage is weak compared to other NICs. These conclusions are of significant importance for understanding the global competitiveness of high-technology industries in NICs and for guiding future policy decisions.
