An examination of the Ricardian model of comparative advantage yields the clear result that trade is (potentially) beneficial for each of the two trading partners since it allows for an expanded consumption choice for each. However, for the world as a whole the expansion of production of one product must involve a decrease in the availability of the other, so that it is not clear that trade is better for the world as a whole as compared to an initial situation of non-trade (but efficient production in each country). Are there in fact gains from trade for the world as a whole? Explain.

    Global economics intergration may be a potential factor that causes trade to affect economic growth positively.

    When there is global intergration companies learn to adopt new technologies and those which doesn't may phase out, dynamic firms which can export to the world experience an increase in demand and this lead to these companies gaining the advantage of operating on larger scale where price per unit product becomes lower. This means the company isnt restricted to their country of origin.
