Trade theories and policies

New trade theory (NTT) is a collection of economic models in international trade which focuses on the role of increasing returns to scale and network effects, which were developed in the late 1970s and early 1980s.. New trade theorists relaxed the assumption of constant returns to scale, and some argue that using protectionist measures to build up a huge industrial base in certain industries

Western European economic policies were greatly dominated by this theory. The theory of mercantilism holds that countries should encourage export and discourage import. It states that a country’s wealth depends on the balance of export minus import. International Trade: Theory and Policy presents a variety of international trade models including the Ricardian model, the Heckscher-Ohlin model, and the monopolistic competition model. It includes trade policy analysis in both perfectly competitive and imperfectly competitive markets. Another element of new trade theory is that firms who have the advantage of being an early entrant can become a dominant firm in the market. This is because the first firms gain substantial economies of scale meaning that new firms can’t compete against the incumbent firms. International Trade Theory and Policy.

The international finance part covers the foreign exchange markets, the relationships between exchange rates and interest rates and prices, the balance of payments, and the international monetary system.
