1 Lahore University of Management Sciences BSc. Program Spring 2018 ECON 351 International Trade Course Outline Instructor Turab Hussain Office Hours: TBA Course Description and Objectives The International Trade course is structured into two parts. The first part introduces students to the theoretical models of trade which explain the rationale, pattern and effect of trade on the participant countries. The second part of the course focuses on trade policy. Here the various instruments of trade policy are analysed, the political economy of trade policy introduced and finally the debates in trade policy are highlighted from the perspective of the developing world. The objectives of the course are thus twofold. The first is to explain how economic theory can be used to understand the reasons why countries trade with each other and the welfare impact of this trade on the countries as a whole and on groups (consumers, producers, government) within these. These theoretical models will be motivated by real world examples and their predictions corroborated by empirical evidence. The second objective is to introduce students to the menu of policy interventions and instruments available to countries used to limit or enhance trade so that they understand the impact of 1
2 these policies on economic welfare of the country and the various groups within a country. The political economy aspect of trade policy will also be covered with the objective of informing students about the role of competing interests and lobbying behaviour in policy making. Finally, students would be introduced to current and historical trade policy debates and issues in both developing and developed countries under the broader ambit of the WTO. The major topics/modules covered in each part are the following: Part I: Pattern of Trade 1. The Gravity Model 2. The Principle of Comparative Advantage The Ricardian Model. 3. The Heckscher-Ohlin Model. 4. The Specific Factor Model. 5. The Standard Trade Model. 6. Economies of Scale and Imperfect Competition Part II: Trade Policy 1. Policy Instruments Tariffs, Quotas and VERS (Voluntary Export Restraints) Dumping 2. Political Economy Free trade? Trade Agreements and Trading Blocks. 3. Debates in Trade Policy 2
