2 2 Trade benefits all? The growth in world trade has significantly increased over the last few decades. Emerging economies such as the BRIC nations (Brazil, Russia, India and China) have contributed to this growth. There are many benefits to economies of this increase in trade, but alongside these there are also a number of drawbacks. The recent global recession shows how economies around the world are now interconnected. 3 Fig. 1 GDP growth in selected economies Q to Q quarterly % change in GDP Key: UK Germany Spain Greece US Japan 5 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q1 Q2 Q year Q4 Q1 Q2 2010

6 6 International trade can cause countries to clash as shown in Figs. 6 and 7. Fig. 6 Newspaper headlines in 2010 Headline A EU puts a quota on cotton imported from China Headline B US increases tariff on steel imported from the EU by 10% Fig. 7 China and the USA a trade war? China is to enforce anti-dumping duties on chicken imports from the USA, accusing US poultry firms of exporting the meat at unfairly low prices. In just the latest in a series of trade disputes between the two countries, China s Commerce Department said the tariffs will start shortly. China launched an investigation into chicken imports from the USA in September 2010, a day after the USA put tariffs on imports of tyres from China. President Obama said that he would get much tougher with China on trade.
7 7 Fig. 8 Increasing globalisation Globalisation is a word which is on everyone s lips these days, from politicians to businessmen. Globalisation is not new, but it is a product of the industrial revolution. Britain grew rich in the 19th century as the first global economic superpower. The pace, scope and scale of globalisation have accelerated dramatically since World War II, and especially in the last 25 years. The rapid spread of information technology and the Internet are changing the way companies organise production, and increasingly allowing services as well as manufacturing to be globalised. Drivers which have affected globalisation are shown in Fig. 9. Fig. 9 What has driven globalisation? Cheaper transportation Faster communication Improved IT Higher living standards Turn over
8 8 Fig. 10 Poverty and the impact of trade on poverty Nearly 13 million people live in relative poverty in the UK. The UK has a higher proportion of its population living in relative poverty than most other EU countries. Absolute poverty is all about not having enough money to pay for the things you need. This means that you may not have enough to eat, may be unable to heat your home, and may not have adequate warm clothing. Trade between countries can help to reduce poverty in a country. It can help people in a country to earn more money and, therefore, spend more on material goods. However, trade can also cause an increase in the income inequality in a country.
