What is global trade
• International trade is the exchange of capital, goods, and services across international borders or territories.
• Each nation should produce goods for which its domestic opportunity costs are lower than the domestic opportunity costs of other nations and exchange those goods for products that have higher domestic opportunity costs compared to other nations.
• Benefits of trade include lower prices and better products for consumers, improved political ties among nations, and efficiency gains for domestic producers.

Why Trade - Comparative Advantage

Impacts of comparative advantage
• More total output and freedom of choice in consumption
• More specialization, and less freedom of choice in production
• Some sectors/regions within a country will lose out (but winners can compensate losers)

Why Trade - Absolute Advantage
• There will be more fish and clothes
• What about employment in Indonesia?
• Can people flow across borders?
• Is efficient economic production all that matters?
• Can winners compensate losers?
• If trade is voluntary, how could this happen?
![Page 11: Global Economics -Trade · focus on reduced trade barriers • Global market takes precedence over national autonomy • Supporting institutions are IMF, World Bank, World Trade Organization](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041413/5e19b718516daf734246ebc3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
So how is trade managed then?
• Who are the actors?
• Nation states
• Individual companies?
• Non-Governmental Organizations?• World Trade Organization
• International Monetary Fund
• World Bank
![Page 12: Global Economics -Trade · focus on reduced trade barriers • Global market takes precedence over national autonomy • Supporting institutions are IMF, World Bank, World Trade Organization](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041413/5e19b718516daf734246ebc3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
How is it managed: Barriers to Trade• Policy trade barriers are barriers to trade
intentionally imposed by national governments.
• Tariffs: taxes imposed on imported goods that make them more expensive. The purpose of a tariff is to make domestic goods that compete against imported goods more competitive.
• Quotas: limit the amount of imported goods that can enter a country within a certain period of time. Again, the intent is to make it easier for domestic companies to compete.
• Product standards limit trade based on whether products or how they are made match certain qualifications.
• Ex. Labor standards
![Page 13: Global Economics -Trade · focus on reduced trade barriers • Global market takes precedence over national autonomy • Supporting institutions are IMF, World Bank, World Trade Organization](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041413/5e19b718516daf734246ebc3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Trade Agreements
• Bilateral, Multilateral, Unilateral
• Bilateral and Multilateral involve 2 (bilateral) or more (multilateral) parties sharing common rules & regs
• Unilateral is more of a trade decision, where one country takes action against another/others without their consent
• Bilateral Ex: US-Australia FTA
• Multilateral Ex: U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (Formerly NAFTA)
![Page 14: Global Economics -Trade · focus on reduced trade barriers • Global market takes precedence over national autonomy • Supporting institutions are IMF, World Bank, World Trade Organization](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041413/5e19b718516daf734246ebc3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
How is Trade Managed: Intergovernmental Agencies• World Trade Organization
• “The WTO deals with regulation of trade in goods, services and intellectual property between participating countries by providing a framework for negotiating trade agreements and a dispute resolution process aimed at enforcing participants' adherence to WTO agreements, which are signed by representatives of member governments”
![Page 15: Global Economics -Trade · focus on reduced trade barriers • Global market takes precedence over national autonomy • Supporting institutions are IMF, World Bank, World Trade Organization](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041413/5e19b718516daf734246ebc3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

What is Globalization?• The integration of all national economies into
one global market, with one set of rules & a focus on reduced trade barriers
• Global market takes precedence over national autonomy
• Supporting institutions are IMF, World Bank, World Trade Organization (WTO), etc.
• Does this best describe the system we have now?
• Is it new?
