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 added trade is often up in US dollars, the trading itself involves various currencies. Japanese videocassette recorders are paid for in Euro in Berlin, and German cars are paid for in US 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 exploiting nation and money flows out of the importing nation. Trade and investment is a two-way street, and with a minimum of trade barriers, international trade and investment usually makes everyone better off.
In an 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, whom barriers were meant to protect.
The Great Depression of the 1930s, for example, spread around the world when the US decided to erect trade barriers to protect local producers. As other countries retaliated, trade suffered, jobs were lost, and the world entered a long period of economic decline.
Vocabulary
