4、 What Is International Economics About? (cont.) International trade as a fraction of the national economy has tripled(番了3倍) for the U.S. in the past 40 years. While both imports and exports have increased, imports have grown more, leading to a large excess of imports over exports which is called as
5、trade deficit (贸易逆差). Question: How is the United States able to pay for all those trade deficit? Compared to the U.S., other countries are even more tied to international trade. 1-6 Fig. 1-1: Exports and Imports as a Percentage of U.S. National Income Source: U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis From 1
6、960s to 1980, both exports and imports rose steadily as shares of U.S. income.

7、nternational trade is even more important to most other countries than it is to the United States. 1-8 II. What Is International Trade About? International trade is the international exchange(国际 交换) of goods and services between countries. This type of trade gives rise to a world economy, in which p
8、rices, or supply and demand, affect and are affected by global events. There are some types of international trade: Import trade, export trade, transit trade(过境贸易/转口贸易) Visible trade(有形贸易), invisible trade inter-industry trade(产业间贸易) , intra-industry trade(产业内 贸易) 1. What is International Trade 1-9
9、Basis for Trade(Why Trade Occurs?) The Mercantilists Views(重商主义) on Trade Trade Based on Absolute Advantage(绝对优势): the Adam Smith Model Trade Based on Comparative Advantage(比较优势): the David Ricardo Model Resource Endowments(资源禀赋) and International Trade: the Heckscher-Ohlin Theory Economies of Scale
10、, Imperfect Competition, and International Trade 2. The Theory of International Trade 1-10 Patterns of Trade(Who sells what to whom?) That is, what commodities are traded and which commodities are exported and imported by each nation? Differences in climate and resources can explain why Brazil expor
11、ts coffee and Australia exports iron ore. But why does Japan export automobiles, while the U.S. exports aircraft? Differences in labor productivity(劳动生产率) may explain why some countries export certain products. How relative supplies of capital, labor and land are used in the production of different
12、goods and services may also explain why some countries export certain products. 1-11 Gains from Trade(贸易利得/收益) Several ideas underlie the gains from trade a. When a buyer and a seller engage in a voluntary transaction(自愿参与交易), both receive something that they want and both can be made better off.(国与
13、国之间相互销售自己的产品和劳 务通常总对双方都有利) Norwegian consumers could buy oranges through international trade that they otherwise would have a difficult time producing. The producer of the oranges receives income that it can use to buy the things that it desires. 1-12 Gains from Trade (cont.) b. Trade is predicted t
14、o benefit a country by making it more efficient when it exports goods which intensively use abundant resources and imports goods which intensively use scarce resources.(如 果一个国家出口密集使用其丰富资源的商品,进口密 集使用其稀缺资源的商品,那么该国会从这种贸易模 式中受益。) c. When countries specialize, they may also be more efficient due to large
15、 scale production.(当某些国家 实现专业化生产时,他们可以从规模化生产中获得收 益。) 1-13 Gains from Trade (cont.) d. Trade is predicted to benefit countries as a whole in several ways, but trade may harm particular groups (特定集团)within a country. International trade can adversely affect the owners of resources that are used intens
16、ively in industries that compete with imports.(与进口产品相竞争的产 业密集使用的要素的所有者会因为贸易而受损) Trade may therefore have effects on the distribution of income within a country, such as workers and the owners of capital, skilled workers and unskilled workers. 1-14 Free Trade vs. Protectionism (How Much Trade?) The m
17、ain idea of free trade(自由贸易) is that supply and demand factors, operating on a global scale, will ensure that production happens efficiently. Therefore, nothing needs to protect or promote trade and growth because market forces will do so automatically. In contrast, protectionism(贸易保护主义) holds that
18、regulation of international trade is important to ensure that markets function properly. Advocates of this theory believe that market inefficiencies may hamper the benefits of international trade and they aim to guide the market accordingly. 1-15 3. The Effects of Government Policies on Trade Policy
19、 makers affect the amount of trade through Tariffs(关税): a tax on imports or exports, Quotas(配额) :a quantity restriction on imports or exports, export subsidies(出口补贴): a payment to producers that export, or through other regulations (ex., product specifications) that exclude foreign products from the
20、 market, but still allow domestic products. What are the costs and benefits of these policies? 1-16 III. Why Do We Study International Trade? International trade makes life more beautiful 一个牛肉与土豆的例子。如果世界上只有两个人:养牛的一个牛肉与土豆的例子。如果世界上只有两个人:养牛的 人和种土豆的人。如果两个人人和种土豆的人。如果两个人“老死不相往来老死不相往来”,那么,那么, 在吃了几个月烤牛肉、煮牛肉
