Abstract

[fre] Une étude historique des variations de l'intensité des commerces extérieurs et de celles des taux de croissance des produits nationaux, menée sur un siècle et demi en France, au Royaume-Uni, aux États-Unis et sur les trente dernières années en d'autres pays européens, montre la complexité des relations entre les deux phénomènes. L'intensification du commerce extérieur tantôt stimule la croissance et tantôt la compromet. Son déclin coïncide souvent avec une stagnation ou une réduction des productions, qui peut être cause ou conséquence, selon les cas ; mais parfois aussi il accompagne un remarquable développement de l'économie nationale. Cela invite à remettre en cause les théories classiques des effets de la division internationale du travail. [eng] The complexity of the relationship between reliance on foreign trade and the growth of national product is clearly evident from the last century and a half's experience in France, the United Kingdom, the United States and that of other European countries in the last three decades. Increased reliance on foreign trade sometimes stimulates growth and sometimes retards it. Its decline often coincides with stagnation and a fall in production (in some cases it is a cause, in others a consequence), but occasionally, such a decline is accompanied by a period of marked growth in the economy. Such observations may give us cause to re-examine classical theories of the effects of the international division of labour.
