International Trade

Bayani Gaba-gaba

No country produces everything it consumes, and no country consumes only what it produces. Coffee grown in one climate reaches breakfast tables on the other side of the world; a country with no oil fields still fills its cars with petrol. International trade lets countries specialise in what they are relatively best at producing and exchange the rest, and the economic case for this, comparative advantage, is one of the oldest and most powerful ideas in the subject.

In this lesson you will learn why countries trade, why governments sometimes restrict trade instead, the tools they use to do it, and how trading blocs and the World Trade Organization shape the pattern of world trade today.

Manufura

  1. Advantages and disadvantages of free trade, including lower prices and increased choice for consumers, lower input costs, wider markets for businesses, foreign competition harming domestic businesses, increasing unemployment
  2. Reasons for protection: prevent dumping, protect employment, protecting infant industries, to gain tariff revenue, protect consumers from unsafe products, reducing current account deficits, retaliation
  3. Methods of protection: tariffs, quotas, subsidies, advantages and disadvantages of each method of protection, supply and demand diagrams to show tariffs, quotas and subsidies
  4. Modern trading blocs: impact of trading blocs on member and non-member countries, examples of trading blocs
  5. Role of the World Trade Organization (WTO): actions by the WTO
  6. Trade patterns of developed and developing countries

Takardar Darasi

A country could, in theory, try to produce almost everything it needs domestically. In practice, almost no country does, because specialising in a narrower range of goods and trading for the rest leaves everyone with more to consume than trying to be self-sufficient. The economic reasoning behind this is built on two related ideas: absolute advantage and comparative advantage.
