International trade plays an important role in the economy of each individual country. It allows to satisfy the needs of the population; stimulates the internal development of the country. International trade is the exchange of goods and services between countries. The paper studies specialisation patterns in manufacturing production and international trade to (1980-2013). It investigates whether specialisation has increased in the international trade and analyses whether these patterns are consistent with three different strands of trade theories: the classical Heckscher-Ohlin theory, the ’new’ trade theories based on increasing returns to scale, and the economic geography’ theories based on vertical linkages between industries. I find that there is evidence of increasing specialisation in the international trade and there is some support for all three strands of trade theories
