Summary/Abstract: The paper attempts to evaluate the impact of new price relations in international trade on the ranking of the world's leading exporters with respect to selected Asian economies. Particular attention is paid to the commodity structure of exports of highly industrialized economies such as Japan, China and (first- and second-tier) newly industrialized economies. The research study covers also India and Turkey, which sometimes are also classified as NIEs. The considerations suggest that all these countries reacted differently to the new price relations in the world economy. Of key importance was a given country's ability to adapt to this phenomenon by changing its commodity structure of exports on the one hand while increasing the growth rate of its Vol.me on the other. As a consequence, three individual paths of growth in export can be distinguished for different economies: Japan, China and newly industrialized economies, including India and Turkey.
