16、iscussion:,2).Absolute Advantage:,Adam Smith,“The wealth of Nations”in 1776.2 main areas of contribution:absolute advantage and the division of labor.A):Key features#Challenging mercantilism#Market forces#Specialization#Benefits from specialization and trade positive-sum game B):Example1#Assume:perf

17、ect competition no transportation cost#Suppose:*the US and Japan are involved*Each nation two input units to produce*uses one unit of input to produce each of the products.,a).if neither country imports nor exports,b):Use resources to produce the product at which it is more efficient-exchange,C.Exam

18、ple 2 Assume:a labor theory of value:goods exchange for each other at home in proportion to the relative labor time embodied in them.,England:1 barrel of wine4 yards of cloth;Portugal:1 W1 1/2 C,D.Discussion:a).crucial for the early development of classical thought and for altering the view of the p

19、otential gains from international trade;b).extended his division of labor in the production process to a division of labor and specialized product across countries;c).relied on a country possessing AD in production,but didnt explain what caused the production advantages,3).Comparative Advantage:,Dav

20、id Ricardo 1819“on the Principle of Political Economy and Taxation”.Even though a nation held an absolute advantage in the production of both goods,the two countries still trade with advantages for each other as long as less efficient country was not equally less efficient in production of both good

21、s.A:Key features#Development from the absolute advantage#What happens when a country can produce both or all products at an absolute advantage?#Specializing in producing those that a country has more absolute advantage or disadvantage#Still benefits from such specialization and trade,B:Example1#Assu

22、me:*perfect competition*no transportation cost#Suppose:*USA:absolute advantage*Japan:absolute disadvantage*The same suppositions in the first example,If each country specializes in what it does best,its output will be:,C.Example 2:labor requirements per unit of production,Note:Two ways to illustrate
