Abstract
Linder theory is one of the main theories of the international trade based on the demand side. It implies that the countries with similar demand structures trade more intensely with one another. This study presents empirical evidence in support of the Linder theory of international trade for selected OECD Countries. In order to analyze the validity of Linder hypothesis for these countries, Panel Tobit approach has been employed using the annual data for the period 2001-2005. The empirical results provide evidence supporting the panel tobit model in terms of applicability and robustness. The results of the study also show some insights in support of the Linder hypothesis for OECD Countries.
