| | International trade - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The regulation of international trade is done through the World Trade Organization at the global level, and through several other regional arrangements such as MERCOSUR in South America, NAFTA between the United States, Canada and Mexico, and the European Union between 25 independent states. |  | | While international trade has been present throughout much of history (see Silk Road, Amber Road), its economic, social, and political importance have been on the rise in recent centuries, mainly because of industrialization, advanced transportation, globalization, multinational corporations, and outsourcing. |  | | Free trade is usually most strongly supported by the most economically powerful nation in the world. |

| | THE SIMPLE ANALYTICS OF FREE TRADE AREAS |
 | | Trade creation occurs when production is shifted from higher cost producers to lower cost producers within the trading bloc. |  | | Trade diversion occurs when production is shifted to higher cost internal producers from lower cost external producers because the products of the external producers have become uncompetitive in the internal market due to the creation of the preferential trading area. |  | | When the trade barriers are eliminated among PTA members, differences in comparative costs will lead to shifts in trade, production and investment patterns, according to the law of comparative advantage, that favour the lower cost producers and improve economic efficiency within the PTA. |

 | | Their studies generally focus on (a) the performance of total trade between countries; (b) the impacts on a particular country’s economic performance, usually sectoral, after joining a free trade zone (intra-bloc effect); (c) the costs and benefits of the regional integration processes; and (d) the effects of preferential trade agreements on various countries’ trade performance. |  | | In the EU-15, preferential trade accounted for around 72% of total trade over the entire period of their study, but was greater in the agricultural sector than in the industrial goods sector. |  | | Trade deviation occurs when the socially lower-cost production of a non-member country is replaced by production of a less efficient partner for a particular good, because of the elimination of intra-bloc barriers and the creation of common external tariffs for non-member countries - which makes the final price of the non-member country artificially less competitive. |

 | | Trade creation simply relates to any expansion in the quantity traded between A and B of goods that A was previously importing from B (or vice versa). |  | | A key point about these various regional trade arrangements is that they all result in a country giving preferential treatment to the goods and services imported from the other members of the region. |  | | The actual cost of making the goods ourselves was greater than the cost of importing them, but previously domestic consumers bought from the high-cost domestic producer because the tariff had artificially inflated the cost to the consumer of the foreign good. |

 | | Trade diversion occurs when an international agreement (e.g., establishment of a free trade area [FTA]) causes a less efficient (higher cost) producer in a country party to the agreement to at least partially replace supplies from lower cost producers in countries not party to the agreement. |  | | Trade adjustment assistance (TAA) is any program that funds retraining and financial assistance for workers disemployed because of liberalized international trade. |  | | Trade barriers tend to raise the prices of imports and reduce the prices foreigners pay for a country’s exports, and include tariffs (taxes on imported goods), quotas (quantity limits), regulations, and the maintenance of artificially low exchange rates. |

| | Trade Diversion and Trade Creation |
 | | In general, trade creation means that a free trade area creates trade that would not have existed otherwise. |  | | Trade diversion occurs when a FTA shifts imports from a more efficient supplier to a less efficient supplier which by itself causes a reduction in national welfare. |  | | The analysis uses a partial equilibrium framework which means that we consider the effects of preferential trade liberalization with respect to a representative industry. |

| | Half a Loaf is Better than None: The Case for Regional Free Trade Agreements |
 | | Trade creation is the benefit accrued when a country lowers its trade barriers, such as a tariff, with the most efficient producer of a product as happened, for example when the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) allowed tomatoes from Mexico to enter the U.S. market. |  | | Trade economist Jagdish Bhagwati, who has written elegantly and persuasively on the benefits of trade liberalization, pejoratively labels this uneven approach a "spaghetti bowl" approach to trade. |  | | The reason that there are so many peculiar trade initiatives is not because trade negotiators have a penchant for the untidy, or because they enjoy confounding economists; it is because the particular set of trade agreements in place are the ones that are feasible. |

 | | Trade creation happens when production is transferred from a high cost to a low cost country, perhaps because tariffs have been removed from the low cost country’s products. |  | | Trade diversion happens when production is transferred from a low cost country to a high cost country, because tariffs have been removed from the high cost country’s products. |  | | Thus, he was able to compare total levels of trade and imports before and after EEC, account for the ‘natural’ growth in imports due to increased GNP, and take the benefits of Community trade to be the residual. |

| | The Facts About Trade and Job Creation |
 | | Most trade is in the manufacturing sector, where wages in jobs related to both imports and exports tend to be higher than average wages in the economy. |  | | In this case, the score, i.e., the trade balance, is the difference between exports (which create jobs) and imports (which destroy them). |  | | Table 1 summarizes the contributions to growth of all the components of GDP between 1992 and 1999: consumption, investment, international trade (exports minus imports), and government spending. |

| | The high price of 'free' trade |
 | | NAFTA is a free trade and investment agreement that provided investors with a unique set of guarantees designed to stimulate foreign direct investment and the movement of factories within the hemisphere, especially from the United States to Canada and Mexico. |  | | Thus, NAFTA and other sources of growing trade deficits were responsible for a change in the composition of employment, shifting workers from manufacturing to other sectors and, frequently, from good jobs to low-quality, low-pay work. |  | | As the trade deficit limits jobs in the manufacturing sector, the new supply of workers to the service sector (from displaced workers plus young workers not able to find manufacturing jobs) depresses the wages of those already holding service jobs. |

| | The Hindu Business Line : FTAs and the para-tariff effect |
 | | Trade creation occurs when (as a result of the FTA) a country's domestic production is replaced by lower-cost imports from the partner country. |  | | However, one aspect that is usually not taken into account while undertaking trade liberalisation, either unilaterally or through a free trade agreement, is the welfare implication of the existing institutional barriers, such as border delays. |  | | Until the early 1950s, the presumption was that an FTA was necessarily trade liberalising and, therefore, resulted in freer trade and greater economic efficiency. |
