WHAT IS INTERNATIONAL TRADE?

When Honduras exports bananas to Switzerland, they can use the money they earn to import

Swiss chocolate — or to pay for Kuwaiti oil or a vacation in Hawaii. The basic idea of

international trade and investment is simple: each country produces goods or services that can be

either consumed at home or exported to other countries.

The main difference between domestic trade and international trade is the use of foreign

currencies to pay for the goods and services crossing international borders. Although global trade

is often added up in U.S. dollars, the trading itself involves various currencies. Japanese

videocassette recorder is paid for in German marks in Berlin, and German cars are paid for in

U.S. dollars in Boston. Indian tea, Brazilian coffee, and American films are sold around the

world in currencies as diverse as Turkish liras and Mexican pesos.

Whenever a country imports or exports goods and services, there is a resulting flow of funds:

money returns to the exporting nation, and money flows out of the importing nation. Trade and

investment is a two-way street that, with a minimum of trade barriers, usually makes everyone

better off.

In a interlinked global economy, consumers are given the opportunity to buy the best products at

the best prices. By opening up markets, a government allows its citizens to produce and export

those things they are best at and to import the rest, choosing from whatever the world has to

offer.

Some trade barriers will always exist as long as any two countries have different sets of laws.

However, when a country decides to protect its economy by erecting artificial trade barriers, the

result is often damaging to everyone, including those people whose barriers were meant to

protect.

The Great Depression of the 1930s, for example, spread around the world when the United States

decided to erect trade barriers to protect local producers. As other countries retaliated, trade

plumpered, jobs were lost, and the world entered into a long period of economic decline.
