| Course Objectives: |
No economy exists in isolation. Goods, services, people (labor), and capital move from one economy to another. Economic policies implemented by one country can affect the economy and welfare of other countries. The discipline under economics that studies the interaction between economies is called international economics. The subject matter of our course, International Trade Theory (IB 3413), falls under the broader topic of international economics. International trade theory first and foremost tries to explain why trade (movement of goods and services) takes place among different economies and then tries to analyze whether or not a nation benefits from international trade. International trade theory also tries evaluating income distribution consequences of trade. The objective of the course is twofold. The first objective is to introduce the basic concepts and analytical tools used by international trade economics. Secondly, main trends in global trade and globalization is presented in conjunction with the analytical framework developed throughout the course.
