| Sumario: | This article proposes an econometric analysis based on the economic theory proposed by Thirlwall's law to establish the relationship between gross domestic product (GDP) -as an endogenous variable- and the trade balance -as an explanatory variable. One of the purposes of this study is to determine whether there was a substantial change in the values of these variables after the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) came into force. For this purpose, chronological data for the period 1989-2007 have been considered. Another objective is to specify an econometric model that helps to establish forecasts of the variables in the model over time. |
