Abstract

The relationship between external trade and economic growth in China is analysed by applying co-integration analytical tools and Granger causality - VAR model. The conclusion indicates that the relationship between external trade and economic growth keeps steady, and there is only single-direction causality existing between export and GDP or between import and export. Economic growth in China is an export-oriented growth, therefore, the export trade must be strengthened, at the same time, import trade should not be ignored.
