Weinvestigate the  impact  of  international  outsourcing ,on  productivity ,using  plant  level  data  for Irish  manufacturing.   Specifically,  we  distinguish  the  effect  of  outsourcing  of  materials  from services inputs.  Moreover, we examine whether the impact on productivity is different for plants being more embedded,in international markets through exporting or being part of a multinational. Our results demonstrate that these distinctions can in general be important and are line with implications from the recent theoretical literature.  Keywords: International outsourcing, productivity, exporting, multinational production  JEL classification: F14, F23, L23    this version: August 2004    *We are grateful to Forfás for the provision of the data and to Peter Egger for very helpful comments,on  an ,earlier  draft.
