Abstract

In this Paper, using the newest econometrics thecnics such as panel unit root, panel cointegration and panel causality the causality relation between economic growth and export for two groups of countries, developing countries and OECD members, for the period 1981 to 2006 is studied. The results show that export expansion for developing countries only in the long-term and for OECD members both for long-term and short-term can cause economic growth.
