第1篇国际贸易理论 第2章世界贸易概览 2.1复习笔记 1.经济规模与进出口总额之间的关系 (1)规模问题:引力模型 现实证明一国的经济规模与其进出口总额息息相关。把整个世界贸易看成整体,可利用引力模型(gravity model)来预测任意两国之间的贸易规模。引力模型方程式如下: 其中, T是i国与j国的贸易额,A为常量,i Y是i国的国内生产总值,j Y是j国的国 ij 内生产总值, D是两国的距离。引力模型方程式表明:其他条件不变的情况下,两国间的 ij 贸易规模与两国的GDP成正比,与两国间的距离成反比。 (2)引力模型的内在逻辑 引力模型之所以能较好地拟合两国之间的实际贸易现状,其原因在于:大的经济体收入高,因而大量进口产品;大的经济体能生产更多品种的系列产品,因而更能满足其他国家的需求,进而大量出口产品。在两国贸易中,任一方的经济规模越大,则双方的贸易量就越大。 (3)引力模型的应用:寻找反例 当两国之间的贸易量与依照引力模型计算得出的结果相差较大时,就需要从其他因素进行分析,如文化的亲和性、地理位置、运输成本等因素。事实上,这也是引力模型的重要用

途之一,即有助于明确国际贸易中的异常现象。 (4)贸易障碍:距离、壁垒和疆界 距离、壁垒和疆界对国际贸易有负面作用,会使得两国之间的贸易额大大小于根据引力模型所计算出的结果。另外,在各国GDP和距离给定的情况下,有效贸易协定(trade agreement)比无效的贸易协定更能显著增加成员国的贸易量,这也是美国与其邻国的贸易量明显大于其和相同大小的欧盟的贸易量的原因之一。 2.正在演变的世界贸易模式 (1)世界变小了吗? 人们认为,现代化的运输和通讯可以超越空间距离的束缚,世界因此成了小“村落”。事实的确如此。但是,有时候政治的力量可以超过技术进步的作用,两次世界大战、20世纪30年代的大萧条及战后全世界范围内的贸易保护主义等都严重制约着国际贸易的发展,使得国际贸易大幅萎缩,并且用了几十年才得以恢复。 (2)交易内容 从全世界范围来看,工业制成品是主要的交换产品,所占比重最大。矿产品特别是现代世界不可或缺的石油依旧是世界贸易的主要部分。引人注目的是发展中国家已经从初级产品出口国转变为主要的制成品出口国。另外,服务贸易在国际贸易中凸显重要,并且其重要性越来越突出。 (3)服务外包 随着现代信息技术的发展和应用,一种新的贸易形式——服务外包(service outsourcing)随之出现。服务外包也称之为离岸服务,是一种新兴的国际贸易现象,使得曾经必须在一国国内实现的服务现在可以在国外实现。 (4)旧规则依然可行吗?

国际经济学克鲁格曼考试重点

绝对优势:是指以各国生产成本的绝对差异为基础进行的国际专业化分工,并通过自由贸易获得利益的一种国际贸易理论。 李嘉图模型:是一个单一要素模型,劳动是唯一的生产要素,劳动生产率的差异是不同国家各个产业部门之间唯一的不同之处,也是决定国际贸易的唯一因素。李嘉图模型的中心含义是如果每个国家都能够专门生产并出口本国劳动生产率较高的产品,那么他们之间的贸易就会给每个国家带来利益,他的两个核心含义:劳动生产率的差异在国际贸易中占据重要地位和贸易模式取决于比较优势而非绝对优势,至今仍能得到事实支持。 机会成本:是指因一种选择而放弃的最有替换物或失去最好机会的价值,即是指经济决策中影由中选的最优方案负担的,按所放弃的次优方案潜在收益计算的那部分资源损失。 要素比例理论/赫克歇尔俄林理论:是指从资源禀赋角度对国际贸易中的生产成本和价格的差异做出解释的国际贸易理论。其内容是:各国的贸易源于不同国家之间商品的价格存在差异,而价格差异的原因在于不同国家之间的生产成本有高有低,生产成本的高低是因为各国生产要素价格有差别,生产要素价格的差异又与各国生产要素丰裕程度密切相关。生产要素丰裕,其商品价格自认就相对低一些,生产要素稀缺,其价格相对高一些。生产要素丰裕度的差异是国际贸易产生的根本原因。 出口偏向性增长:是指一国的经济增长主要源于出口产品生产能力提高的经济增长方式,表现在生产可能性边界上就是使生产可能性边界扩张偏向出口产品。 福利恶化性增长:是指一国整体福利水平恶化的经济增长方式,是发展中国家的出口偏向型增长在严格假定下可能出现的一种极端情况。一国的出口偏向性增长可能导致该国的贸易条件恶化。因此,如果一国的经济增长方式表现为极强的出口偏向性,那么贸易条件恶化带来的负面影响就会抵消生产力提高带来的正面效应,使得该国整体的福利水平恶化。 出口补贴:是指国家为了降低出口商品的价格,提高其在国际上的竞争力,对出口商品给予的现金或财政上的补贴。 动态收益递增:成本随着累计产量下降而并非随着当前劳动生产率的上升而下降的情形就是动态收益递增 倾销:出口商以低于国内市场价格的价格,甚至以低于成本的价格在国际市场上销售商品的行为。 外部规模经济是指整个行业规模和产量的扩大而使单个企业平均成本下降或收益增加的经济现象。 边际收益:在生产的技术水平和其他投入要素的数量均保持不变情况下,新增加一个单位的某种投入要素所引起的产量的增加量。 幼稚工业论:认为新兴工业在发展初期需要国家提供保护以免在外国强大的竞争下夭折,并随着新兴工业的发展和竞争力的增强而逐步取消贸易保护,为自由贸易的实行创造条件。垄断竞争:介于完全竞争和完全垄断之间的一种市场结构,这种结构下既存在垄断,又存在竞争。 价格歧视:一家企业在销售同样的商品时,对不同的顾客索取不同价格的做法 完全垄断:完全排斥竞争的一种市场结构。 内部规模经济:单个企业生产规模不断扩大时,由其自身内部引起的平均成本不断下降,收益不断增加的经济现象。 相互倾销:不同国家生产同种或类似产品的厂商都对出口产品制定一个低于国内市场价的价格并进行双向贸易的现象。 行业内贸易:在国际贸易活动中,不同国家之间就同一产业的产品所进行的贸易。

国际经济学试题及答案

三、名词解释 1.生产者剩余 答:生产者剩余是指生产者愿意接受的价格和实际接受的价格之间的差额。 2.罗伯津斯基定理 答:罗伯津斯基定理是指在生产两种产品的情况下,如果商品的国际比价保持不变,一种生产要素增加所导致的密集使用该生产要素的产品产量增 加,会同时减少另外一种产品的产量。 3.产品生命周期 答:产品生命周期是指新产品经历发明、应用、推广到市场饱和、产品衰落,进而被其他产品所替代四个阶段。 4.购买力平价 答:购买力平价是指两种货币之间的汇率决定于它们单位货币购买力之间的比例。 5.市场内部化 答:市场内部化是指企业为减少交易成本,减少生产和投资风险,而将该跨国界的各交易过程变成企业内部的行为。 6.黄金输送点 答:黄金输送点包括黄金输入点和黄金输出点,是黄金输入、输出的价格上限和下限,它限制着一个国家货币对外汇率的波动幅度。 7.要素禀赋 答:要素禀赋,即要素的丰裕程度,是指在不同国家之间,由于要素的稀缺程度不同导致的可利用生产要素价格相对低廉的状况。赫克歇尔-俄林 定理认为,要素禀赋构成一个国家比较优势的基础 8.比较优势 答:比较优势也称为比较成本或比较利益,是由英国古典经济学家大卫李·嘉图提出的。李嘉图通过两个国家两种产品的模型阐明,比较优势是一国 在绝对优势基础上的相对较大的优势,在绝对劣势基础上的相对较小的 劣势,遵循“两利相权取其重,两弊相衡取其轻”的原则。根据各自的 比较优势来来确定国际分工并进行贸易往来,双方便都可以获得比较利 益。 9.人力资本 答:所谓人力资本是资本与劳动力结合而形成的一种新的生产要素,然们通过劳动力进行投资(如进行教育、职业培训、保健等),可以提高原有 劳动力的素质和技能,劳动生产率得到提升,从而对一个国家参加国际 分工的比较优势产生作用与影响。 10.布雷顿森林体系 答:布雷顿森林体系是指从第二次世界大战结束到1971年所实行的金汇兑本位制。这一以美元为中心的固定汇率制度的特征简而言之便是“美元

克鲁格曼 国际经济学第9版教材答案

Chapter 1 Introduction ?Chapter Organization What Is International Economics About? The Gains from Trade The Pattern of Trade How Much Trade? Balance of Payments Exchange Rate Determination International Policy Coordination The International Capital Market International Economics: Trade and Money ?Chapter Overview The intent of this chapter is to provide both an overview of the subject matter of international economics and to provide a guide to the organization of the text. It is relatively easy for an instructor to motivate the study of international trade and finance. The front pages of newspapers, the covers of magazines, and the lead reports on television news broadcasts herald the interdependence of the U.S. economy with the rest of the world. This interdependence may also be recognized by students through their purchases of imports of all sorts of goods, their personal observations of the effects of dislocations due to international competition, and their experience through travel abroad. The study of the theory of international economics generates an understanding of many key events that shape our domestic and international environment. In recent history, these events include the causes and consequences of the large current account deficits of the United States; the dramatic appreciation of the dollar during the first half of the 1980s followed by its rapid depreciation in the second half of the 1980s; the Latin American debt crisis of the 1980s and the Mexican crisis in late 1994; and the increased pressures for industry protection against foreign competition broadly voiced in the late 1980s and more vocally espoused in the first half of the 1990s. The financial crisis that began in East Asia in 1997 and spread to many countries around the globe and the Economic and Monetary Union in Europe highlighted the way in which various national economies are linked and how important it is for us to understand these connections. These global linkages have been highlighted yet again with the rapid spread of the financial crisis in the United States to the rest of the world. At the same time, protests at global economic meetings and a rising wave of protectionist rhetoric have highlighted opposition to globalization. The text material will enable students to understand the economic context in which such events occur. ? 2012 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Addison-Wesley

国际经济学复习题

比较利益:由英国经济学家托伦斯提出、嘉图发展的国际贸易理论。认为:即使一个国家生产每种产品都具有最高生产率,处于绝对优势,而另一个国家生产每种产品都处于绝对劣势,只要它们的劳动生产率在不同产品上存在区别,遵循“两利相权取其重,两弊相衡取其轻”的原则,便能从国际分工和贸易中获得利益。 出口的贫困增长:是指一国生产要素增加使产品出口增加时,该国的出口收入不但没有增加,反而减少了。造成这种局面的直接原因就是国际比价贸易条件的恶化。出口的贫困化增长主要发生在发展中国家,根源在于出口量随着生产能力提高而增加,引起国际市场价格下跌,进而造成贸易条件恶化。 要素禀赋:是指一国所拥有的可利用的经济资源的总量。它既包括自然存在的资源(如土地和矿产),也包括“获得性”资源(如技术和资本)。这是一个绝对量的概念。 要素禀赋理论:即赫克歇尔—俄林定理,简称H-O模型。在国际贸易中,一国的比较优势是由其要素丰裕度决定的。一国应生产和出口较密集地使用其较丰裕的生产要素的产品,进口较密集地使用其较稀缺的生产要素的产品。 要素价格均等化定理:即使生产要素不具备国际流动的条件,只要商品自由贸易得到充分的发展,那么各国同种生产要素的相对价格会趋于相等。同时,绝对价格也会趋于相等。要素密集度逆转:是指生产的某种商品,在劳动力相对丰富的国家中属于劳动密集型产品,但在资本相对丰富的国家中则属于资本密集型产品。 产业贸易理论:一国即出口又进口某种产业产品的贸易现象。具体主要指的是同一产业部门部的差异化产品的交换和中间产品的交流。按国际贸易标准分类至少前三位数相同的产品既出现在一国的进口项目中、又出现在该国的出口项目中。规模收益:当所有投入要素的使用量都按同样的比例增加时,这种增加会对总产量的影响。 规模收益是指涉及到厂商生产规模变化与产量变化之间的关系,如果生产规模的变化是由所有生产要素以相同比例扩大或减少而引起的,那么对应的产量变动就有三种情况:(1)如果产量增加的比率大于生产要素增加的比率,则生产处于规模收益递增阶段;(2)如果产量增加的比率等于生产要素增加的比率,则生产处于规模收益不变阶段;(3)如果产量增加的比率小于生产要素增加的比率,则生产处于规模收益递减阶段。 出口补贴:出口补贴又称出口津贴,是一国政府为了降低出口商品的价格,增加其在国际市场的竞争力,在出口某商品时给予出口商的现金补贴或财政上的优惠待遇。 进口配额:一国政府对一定时期进口的某些商品的数量或金额加以直接控制。在规定的期限,配额以的货物可以进口,超过配额不准进口,或征收较高关税后才能进口。简单而言,配额是对进口商品设置一定的限额,其目的与征收关税一样,为了限制进口,保护国工业。但与关税不同的是,进口配额是直接的数量控制而不是通过提高进口商品价格间接地减少进 口。 生产者剩余:生产者剩余是指生产者愿意接受的价格和实际接受的价格之间的差额。 消费者剩余:消费者在购买一定数量的某种商品时愿意支付的总数量和实际支付的总数量之间的差额 幼稚产业:某种产业由于技术经验不足、劳动生产率低下、产品成本高于世界市场价格,因而无法与国外产业竞争,但在关税、补贴等保护措施下继续生产一段时间,经过一段时间的生产能够在自由贸易条件下获利,达到其他国家水平而自

克鲁格曼《国际经济学》计算题及答案

1. 在古典贸易模型中,假设A 国有120名劳动力,B 国有50名劳动力,如果生产棉花的话,A 国的人均产量是2吨,B 国也是2吨;要是生产大米的话,A 国的人均产量是10吨,B 国则是16吨。画出两国的生产可能性曲线并分析两国中哪一国拥有生产大米的绝对优势?哪一国拥有生产大米的比较优势? 思路:B 国由于每人能生产16吨大米,而A 国每人仅生产10吨大米,所以B 国具有生产大米的绝对优 势。 从两国生产可能性曲线看出A 国生产大米的机会成本为,而B 国为,所以B 国生产大米的机会成本或相对成 本低于A 国,B 国生产大米具有比较优势。 2.下表列出了加拿大和中国生产1单位计算机和1单位小麦所需的劳动时间。假定生产计算机和小麦都只用劳动,加拿大的总劳动为600小时,中国总劳动为800小时。 (1) 计算不发生贸易时各国生产计算机和小麦的产量。 (2) 哪个国家具有生产计算机的比较优势?哪个国家具有生产小麦的比较优势? (3) 如果给定世界价格是1单位计算机交换22单位的小麦,加拿大参与贸易可以从每单位的进 口中节省多少劳动时间?中国可以从每单位进口中节省多少劳动时间?如果给定世界价格是1 单位计算机交换24单位的小麦,加拿大和中国分别可以从进口每单位的货物中节省多少劳动 时间? (4) 在自由贸易的情况下,各国应生产什么产品,数量是多少?整个世界的福利水平是提高还是 降低了?试用图分析。(以效用水平来衡量福利水平) 思路: (1) 中国生产计算机的机会成本为100/4=25,加拿大为60/3=20 (2) 因为加拿大生产计算机的机会成本比中国低,所以加拿大具有生产者计算机的比较优势,中国就具有生 产小麦的比较优势。 (3) 如果各国按照比较优势生产和出口,加拿大进口小麦出口计算机,中国进口计算机出口小麦。 加拿大进口一单位小麦需要出口1/22单位计算机,折合成劳动时间来算,生产一单位小麦本国要用3小 时,但生产1/22单位计算机本国要用60/22小时劳动,所以加拿大进口一单位小麦相当于用60/22小时 的劳动换回本国3小时生产的产品,节省了3-60/22=3/11小时的劳动时间。中国进口一单位计算机需要 出口22单位小麦,相当于用22*4=88小时的劳动换回本国需用100小时生产的产品,节省了100-88=12 小时的劳动时间。 如果世界价格是1单位计算机交换24单位的小麦,则相当于用60/24小时的劳动换回本国3小时生产的 产品,节省了3-60/24=1/2小时的劳动时间。中国进口一单位计算机需要出口24单位小麦,相当于用 24*4=96小时的劳动换回本国需用100小时生产的产品,节省了100-96=4小时的劳动时间。 (4) 在自由贸易的情况下,加拿大应专业生产计算机,数量为600/60=10单位;中国应专业生产小麦,数量 为800/4=200单位。 中国的福利水平从U 01上升到U 11,加拿大的福利水平从U 02上升到U 12,整个世界的福利水平上升了。 3. 假定中国总劳动为600小时,生产每单位钢铁Y 需要4小时,而生产每单位大米X 需要2小时,用图画出:

国际经济学重点归纳及解析(四)

2014年新阳光教育同等学力备考 国际经济学重要点归纳及解析(四) 一、名词解释 1.费雪效应 2.要素密集度逆转 3.最优货币区 4.马歇尔·勒纳条件 二、简答 1.试分析国际收支状况反映的经济含义 2.试述国际收支失衡的调整。 3.试述国际生产折衷理论的基本内容及政策意义。 4.试用分析一国宏观经济内外均衡的过程及其政策搭配。 参考答案 一、名词解释 1.费雪效应:是著名的经济学家费雪揭示通货膨胀率预期与利率之间关系的一个发现,它指出当通货膨胀率预期上升时,利率也将上升。名义利率、实际利率与通货膨胀率三者之间的关系是:名义利率=实际利率+通货膨胀率 2.要素密集度逆转:指某种商品在资本丰富的国家属于资本密集型产品,而在劳动力相对丰富的国家则属于劳动密集型产品,如小麦在非洲是劳动密集型产品,而在美国则是资本密集型产品,是大机器和高效化肥生产的产品。所以,同一种产品是劳动密集型产品还是资本密集型产品并没有绝对的界限。在国外属于劳动密集型的产品,有可能在国内属于资本密集型的产品。 3.最优货币区:是指采用单一货币,或几种货币之间汇率永久固定、对外统一浮动的经济区域。最优货币区的条件为:价格与工资弹性、要素市场融合、金融市场融合、商品市场高度融合和宏观经济协调和政治融合。
