dc.description.abstract | The objective of this paper is to test, for the export-led growth hypothesis in Ireland over the last 40 years using the modern econometric analysis of nonstationary
time series. We find that over the 1950-1990 period there is no long-run relationship between real GDP and export volume and no evidence
for the export-led growth hypothesis either. The analysis of the more recent 1981-1994 period provides strong evidence in favour of a long-run relationship
between industrial production and export volume and Granger-causality from exports to output. These results support the export-led growth hypothesis over
the last fifteen years and highlight the importance of export-promoting policies. | en |
