Growth, trade and uneven development
批判性评述增长与贸易理论,从古典政治经济学、南北贸易模型到新增长贸易理论,解释国家间和地区间持续的收入不平等,对比结构主义与新古典方法。
Theories of growth and international trade are reviewed critically from the perspective of understanding persistent inter-country and inter-regional income inequality. Three separate literatures are considered for the insights they offer about international disparity: Classical political economy, the North--South trade models, and the 'new' growth and trade theories that incorporate increasing returns and/or product differentiation. Classical antecedents of the more recent theories are identified, and contrasts are drawn between structuralist and neoclassical approaches to explaining the income gap between rich and poor nations.
