Coun tries en gage in intern ati onal trade for two basic reas on scomparative adva ntage and econo mics of scale3. A country has a comparative adva ntage in produci ng a good the opport unity costof producing that good in terms of other goods is lower in that country than it is in other countries.4. Labor is the only one factor of product ion. a LC 、a LW a nd a [C 、a [W are the unit labor requireme nt in cheese and wi ne at Home and Foreig n, respectively.

If* *a LC /a LW < p C / p W <a LC /a LW , the world relative supply of cheese equals L/aLC ) /(L*/aLW*). Home ' sgains from in directly produc ing wi ne can be show n as (1/aLC)(Pc/Pw) — 1/aLW6. In specific factors model(Q M =Q (K, L M ); Q F =Q F (T, L F ); L=L M +L F ), if Home produces and trades manu factured goods for food , the overall comparis on of the five cha nge rate of goods price and factorcapitalists in crease, it can be show n as r K P Mr K P M.7. There are two main reas ons why intern atio nal trade has stro ng effects on the distributio n of in come. First, resources car t move immediately or costlessly form one industry to another Secondln dustries differ in the factors of producti on they dema nd.8. In the Heckscher-Ohli n model,Comparative adva ntage is in flue need by the in teracti on betwee n relative abundan cea nd relative inten sity9. Accordi ng to stolper-sammels on effect if the relative price of a good rises, the real in come of the factor which in ten sively used in that good will rise, while the real in come of the other factor will fall.10.

Accordi ng to 要素价格均等化命题 Factor price equalizati on propositi on , i nternatio nal tradeproduces a convergence(收敛) of relative goods prices. This convergenee, in turns, causes theconv erge nee of the relative factor prices. Trade leads to omplete equalization of factor prices. 完整的 要素价格均等化)13. Three assumptions(假设) crucial to the prediction of factor price equalization are in reality untrue. These assumptions are (1)两个国家都生产两种产品 both countries produce both goods(2) 两国技术 相同 tech no logies are the samg3) 存在贸易壁垒: 天然壁垒和人为壁垒 There are barriers to trade: natural barriers and artificial barriers 一14. “ U.S. exports were less capitntensive than U.S. imports ” is 里o 昂惕夫s 悖论 Leontief paradox . 15. The Ricardia n Model , the Specific Factor model and the H-O model may be viewed as special cases (特殊情况) of 标准贸易模型 sta ndard trade models16. The standard trade model derives 派生 推导) a world relative supply curve (曲线) from production possibilities and a world relative demand curve from preferences . 17.

Some econo mists argued tha ixport-biased growth by poor n ati ons would worse n their term of trade so much that they would be worse off than if they had not grown at all. This situation is known as immiserizi ng growth (贫困化增长).19」mmiserizing growth demands strict conditions, these conditions a cDno mic growth is stro ngly export-biased, the grow ing country is large eno ugh to affect the world price RS and RD must be very steep2O.According to 梅茨勒悖论Metzle paradox ” ,atriffs and export subsidies (补贴)might have perverse (有害的)effects on internal price.21.ln the model of “ Monopo垄断c Competition and Trade ” , firms ind i vidual nation face thetrade-off betwee n econo mies of scalea ndvariety of products .22. Marshall argued that there were three ma in reas ons why a cluster of firms (企业集群)may be more efficie nt tha n an in dividual firm in isolati on: specialized supplies labor market pooli ng , kno wledge spillovers (知识溢出)23. The pattern of intraindustry(产业内)trade itself is unpredicted,history and accident determine the details of the trade patter n.39. When there is external economies(夕卜部经济),the pattern of international trade is determined by econo mics of scale in teract with comparative adva ntage24. The indexes (指标)of intrainindustry trade of a industry can be calculated by the standard formula:exports imports25. Interindustry trade and intrainindustry (产业内)trade are the sources of gains from trade .When countries are similar in their relative factor supplies、scale economies and product differentiations are important, intrainindustry trade is the dominant source (主要来源)of gains from trade, everyone gains from trade.26. The argume nt of temporary (暂时的)protecti on of in dustries to en able them to ga in experie nee is known as —幼稚产业论the infant industry argument27. If we add together the gains and losses from a tariff, We find the net effect on national welfare can be separated into two parts: terms of trade gain and efficiency loss28. Why do countries adopt trade policies such as tariff or import quota, which produce more costs than benefits? ---- t rade politics29.ln the political economy of trade policy (贸易政策的政治经济学),government are assumed (被假定为)maximize 政治成功political success rather than 国家福利national welfare .3O.Deviati ons from free trade can sometimes in crease n ati onal welfare. These argume nts in cludihe term of trade argument for a tariff and the domestic market failure argument31 .According to Specific rule(对症规则)” ,domestic market failure should be corrected by domestic policies aimed directly at the problem ' s sources.32. Although market failures are probably common, the domestic market failure argument against free trade should not be applied too freely.Firs domestic market failure should be corrected by domestic policies aimed directly at the problemssources ;Second eco no mists cannot diag nose market failure well eno ugh to prescribe policy.33. International trade often produces losers as well as winners.

For preferential (优惠)trading agreements, such as customs union , countries must cede part of theirsovereignty to supranational entity (必须放弃部分主权的超国家实体)37. Whether a customs union 关税同盟)is desirabl (可取)or undesirable depends on whether it largely leads to trade creati on or trade diversi on .38. Trade policy in developing countries is concerned with two objectives (涉及两个目标):promoting industrialization and Coping with the problem of the dual economy39. Trade policy in develop ing coun tries is concerned with two objectives: promot ingindustrialization and coping with the problems of the dual economy. Correspondingly, there are two main argume nts for develop ing coun tries to pursue policy of import-substitut ing in dustrializati on. The two argume nts are the infant in dustry argume nt t and market failure justificati on for infant in dustry protectio n.40. Sophisticated proponents of the infant industry argument have identified two market failures as reasons why infant industry protection may be a good ide The imperfect capital markets justificati on and The appropriability argume nt .Part n .

Why is it that an industry is operating under conditions of domestic internal scale economies (applies to firm in the country) - then the resultant equilibrium cannot be consistent with the pure competition model?2. Is it possible that if positive scale economies characterize an industry, that its equilibrium may be consistent with purely competitive conditions ? Explain how this could happen.3. If a scale economy is the dominant technological factor defining or establishing comparative advantage, then the underlying facts explaining why a particular country dominates world markets in some product may be pure chance, or historical accident. Explain, and compare this with the answer you would give for the Heckscher-Ohlin model of comparative advantage.4. It is possible that trade based on external scale economies may leave a country worse off than it would have been without trade. Explain how this could happen.5. If scale economies were not only external to firms, but were also external to individual countries. That is, the larger the worldwide industry (regardless of where firms or plants are located), the cheaper would be the per-unit cost of production.Describe what world trade would look like in this case.Quantitative/Graphing Problems1. The figure above represents the demand and cost functions facing a Brazilian Steel producing monopolist. If it were unable to export, and was constrained by its domestic market, what quantity would it sell at what price?2. Now the monopolist discovers that it can export as much as it likes of its steel at the world price of $5/ton. It will therefore expand for- export production up to the point where its marginal cost equals $5. How much steel will the monopolist sell, and at what price?3. Given the opportunity to sell at world prices, the marginal (opportunity) cost of selling a ton domestically is what?4. While selling exports it would also maximize its domestic sales by equating its marginal (opportunity) cost to its marginal revenue of $5. How much steel would the firm sell domestically, and at what price?5. The Brazilian firm is charging its foreign (U.S.) customers one half the price it is charging its domestic customers. Is this good or bad for the real income or economic welfare of the United States? Is the Brazilian firm engaged in dumping? Is this predatory behavior on the part of the Brazilian steel company?。
