International Trade
Gbogbo ọrọ náà
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.
