Comparative advantage is a principle that allows nations to gain from trade. Comparative advantage means that each nation specializes in a product for which its opportunity cost is lower in terms of the production of another product and then nations trade.
![Page 49: 1 Chapter 21 International Trade and Finance ©2004 Thomson/South-Western Key Concepts Key Concepts Summary Summary Practice Quiz](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f145503460f94c28832/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
49
When nations follow the principle of comparative advantage, they gain. The reason is that world output increases and each nation ends up with a higher standard of living by consuming more goods and services than possible without specialization and trade.

Protectionism is a government’s use of embargoes, tariffs, quotas, and other methods t impose barriers intended to both reduce imports and protect particular domestic industries.

Embargoes prohibit the import of export of particular goods. Tariffs discourage imports by making them more expensive. Quotas limit the quantity of imports or exports of certain goods.
