6.1. The Beginning of Globalization: Liberal Economic Theory
Guiding Principles: the building of the Liberal International Economic Order– The theory of absolute advantage
![Page 6: 6.0. International Political Economy Learning Objectives: –Familiar with the subject matter of IPE –Understand the principle relationships between the](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022080914/56649cef5503460f949bd94b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Absolute Advantage(two countries, two products, one production input (labour)
1 roll of cloth 1 Bushel of wheat
Canada 9 hours 7 hours (more efficient)
India 3 hours (more efficient) 12 hours
• If Canada and India trade, both countries can divert labour to the good they produce most efficiently. For example:– Canada diverts 100 hours of labour from cloth production to
wheat – India diverts 100 hours of labour from wheat production to cloth

Absolute Advantage(two countries, two products, one production input (labour)
Rolls of cloth Bushels of wheat
Canada (100 hours from cloth production to wheat)
-11 rolls (-100 hours divided by 9)
+14 bushels (+100 hours divided by 7)
India (100 hours from wheat production to cloth)
+33 rolls (+100 hours divided by 3)
-8 bushels (-100 hours divided by 12)
• Net gain from trade for Canada and India: 22 rolls of cloth and 6 bushels of wheat

Comparative Advantage(two countries, two products, one production input (labour)
1 roll of cloth 1 Bushel of wheat
Canada 9 hours 7 hours
Mexico 3 hours (more efficient) 6 hours (more efficient)
• Mexico has absolute advantage in cloth and wheat• Canada has comparative advantage in wheat• If Canada and Mexico trade, both countries can divert
labour to the good they produce comparatively efficiently. For example:– Canada diverts 100 hours of labour from cloth production to
wheat – India diverts 50 hours of labour from wheat production to cloth
