Summary / Abstract:

ENThe research paper discusses the relationship between international trade, especially export, and the economic growth, presented by GDP, in Lithuania over the period of 2000–2015 years. The analysis is started by the historical review of possible types of relationships between exports and economic growth. Furthermore, the paper presents four theoretical propositions as export-led growth (1), growth-driven export (2), a feedback relationship (3) and simple contemporaneous relationship (4). This study examines the importance of the export-led growth hypothesis for Lithuania. The testing is based on Granger causality in the export–GDP system. The export-led growth hypothesis is found in Lithuania only in the short-run. The recommendations for future investigations are developed at the end of research paper’s parts.
