消费者偏好与国际贸易模式

Consumer Preferences and International Trade Patterns

假设两个国家的要素禀赋相同,研究两个国家的消费者偏好的差异对国际贸易的影响。该文通过数理经济学的方法,发现当两国生产可能性曲线相同,偏好不同,如果只有一种生产要素,两国不会发生国际贸易;但如果有两个或两个以上的生产要素,两国会发生国际贸易。国际贸易至少不会降低各国的效用水平。

With the same factor endowments of two countries , this paper reveals the influence of difference in consumer preference on international trade in the aspect of demands.In the methods of mathematical economics, we find that with the same production possibility curve but different preference , international trade between two countries will not occur with only one kind of production factor , however , it happens with two or more kinds of production factors .International trade will not reduce utility level at least .
