Abstract

[eng] Jean-Marie Cardebat — International trade and development : what relationships ? An empirical response from international data panel.. This work exploits a panel data concerning seven developing zones, between 1980 and 1996. It studies the direct links between international trade and changes of the gdp per capita. The results first show that the intensity and nature of intra-branch trade cause development in the developing countries, as viewed from Grangers' point. Trade with higher income per capita nations doesn't have a greater development impact than that with the rest of the world. The study of the specific effects on each zone however shows that the previous statement applies mainly to the Newly Industrialized Countries of Asia. Elsewhere, the direct links between opening and development are more ambiguous : trade may result in negative GDP per capita growth.
