The 1980s have seen significant advances in coordinating analyses of foreign trade with those of industrial organization. Contributors to this volume illuminate topics in trade theory, including the role of R & D, the nature of gains from trade, the part played by scale economies, the arguments for intervention, theories of intra-industry trade, international capital movements under monopolistic competition, and economic integration and product differentiation.
An excellent compilation of recent work by leaders in the field. --Lawrence Schembri,
