Résumé anglais Some proposals for indicators for use in bilateral trade analysis, by Jean Mathis. The analysis of bilateral external trade calls for the use of indicators. The author reviews the indicators used, starting with the most simple and passing through various successive combinations, to arrive at the formulas which are richest in economic meaning. The paper attempts to answer two questions. First of all, which indicators can be used to draw up an analysis of the specific features of a bilateral relationship (between two countries or two zones) going beyond general external trade factors of the partners concerned? And are the indicators which we usually use not marked by statistical biases? The criticisms and solutions put forward are illustrated by an analysis of the external trade of the major industrial countries. JEL: 421.
