    En este ensayo se contrasta para una muestra dr 18 países hacia 1913 una versión estática de la teoría de Heckscher-Ohlin, en la formulación de Vanek. La conclusión alcanzada es que si bien el modelo de H-O con competencia perfecta no resulta plenamente explicativo para la segunda posguerra mundial, es muy adecuado, sin embargo, para los años finales del siglo XIX y primeros del siglo XX.

    This paper will focus on the question: ¿does the Heckscher-Ohlin theory adequately account for the major aspects of the trade pattern observed prior to WWI, or are there other influences that mattered? I conclude that although the perfect competition H-O model does not do all that well for the post-world War II period, it is perfectly adequate for the late nineteenth century, the period which motivated Eli F. Heckscher and Bertil Ohlin in the first place.
