Abstract

In this article the Heckscher-Ohlin (H-O) theorem in its both the ‘commodity’ and the ‘factor content’ version is examined under the existence of non-factor price equalisation conditions in the bilateral trade between two countries, in a model with three countries and many commodities. Further, the H-O theory is examined in the trade between Greece and the European Union (E.U.) countries. It is found that the differences in the pattern of specialisation in the trade between Greece and each of the E.U. countries is explained by differences in the relative factor endowments. The tests suggest that the H-O model is valid in the trade between Greece and the E.U. countries.
