There is a reigning paradigm in international trade: the H—O—S theory of relative factor endowments. There are also a number of special theories: for example, the product-cycle of Vernon (1966) and the IIT model of Grubel (1970), but these do not aspire to explain international trade patterns in general, merely a part of them. This chapter will not concern itself with these.
