In addition to make it easier for the economic wheels to turn, it also increases the level of welfare. Foreign trade, which facilitates integration with the world, has increased in size with globalization and has become the locomotive of growth. Global cities, which are the places where this transformation is most evident, have taken their share from this development. As a matter of fact, external effects on urban growth also show themselves through globalization. However, in these cities where globalization is experienced most intensely, there is a shift from foreign trade, which is considered the locomotive of growth after spatial transformation, to different dynamics. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between foreign trade and urban growth in global cities. For this reason, the direction of the relationship between urban growth and foreign trade of global cities with 2005-2019 annual data for seven global cities whose data can be accessed was determined by Pairwise Granger panel causality test. As a result of the analysis, the effect of foreign trade of global cities on urban growth was not found, but it was determined that urban growth had an effect on foreign trade of global cities.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessİktisatKentsel ÇalışmalarArticle1431062107010.25287/ohuiibf.843052453294
