What is international trade?
• When goods and services are bought and sold between nations.
• Import – something made in another nation and sold here.
• Export – something made here and sold in another nation.
![Page 5: Economics 11/21/11 OBJECTIVE: Examine the growth in international trade at the end of the 20 th century. MCSS E-2.1.9 I. Administrative](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062718/56649e755503460f94b76286/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Why do nations trade?• Not all nations can produce what they need at
home.• For example, Japan is an industrial nation, yet they
have no domestic sources of oil. They import it.• The United States uses more energy than we
produce, so we have to import oil. We produce more food than we can consume. We export crops like wheat and corn, but we also import food like bananas and coffee because the climate in the United States isn’t right for those products.

Why trade?• Specialization – assignment of tasks so that each
worker performs fewer tasks more frequently• i.e. – Detroit specializes in cars, Florida in
oranges, Texas in cattle• Exports – what a nation specializes in.• Individuals engage in trade because they believe
what they gain is equivalent in value to what they give up.

Advantage
• Absolute advantage – when one country can produce more of a product than another country
• Comparative advantage – the ability of a nation to produce a product at a relatively lower opportunity cost than another nation.

![Page 14: Economics 11/21/11 OBJECTIVE: Examine the growth in international trade at the end of the 20 th century. MCSS E-2.1.9 I. Administrative](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062718/56649e755503460f94b76286/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The ways to stop trade
• Tariff – tax placed on imports to increase their cost on the domestic market place
• Protective tariff – tariff high enough to protect less-efficient domestic industries
• Revenue tariff – a tariff high enough to generate income for the government without actually prohibiting imports
![Page 15: Economics 11/21/11 OBJECTIVE: Examine the growth in international trade at the end of the 20 th century. MCSS E-2.1.9 I. Administrative](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062718/56649e755503460f94b76286/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Other barriers to trade• Quotas – a limit on the number of goods entering
a country. This keeps supply low and prices high for domestic producers
• Dumping – selling products abroad at less than it cost to produce them at home
• Health inspections – used to curb foreign agricultural products
• Import licenses – high fee keeps the number of importers low
![Page 16: Economics 11/21/11 OBJECTIVE: Examine the growth in international trade at the end of the 20 th century. MCSS E-2.1.9 I. Administrative](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062718/56649e755503460f94b76286/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Arguments for Protection• Protecting domestic jobs – trade means those in
jobs where we don’t have a comparative advantage become unemployed. Unemployment negatively impacts our economy.
• National defense – a nation could become so dependent on other countries that during war time they will be unable to produce the materials necessary to win the war
• Promoting Infant Industries – new/emerging industries need protection from foreign competition

Growth of Free trade• Keep money at home – money should
stay in the domestic economy according to protectionists. Free trades argue that this money will flow back under balance of payments
