Features: "International Trade Theory and Policy" is a branch of international economics that studies the causes, structure, and volume of trade between a country and the world under resource constraints; the benefits and distribution of trade; the impact of trade policies and measures; and the mutual relationship between economic growth and trade. It has gradually developed alongside the practice of international trade, with its functions and roles being infused with new connotations as the times evolve. It is precisely for this reason that, over the centuries, international trade has remained a powerful driver for both national economies and the global economy. This textbook is divided into two parts: theory and policy. The theoretical part systematically and comprehensively introduces the basic knowledge of international trade and traditional international trade theories, and systematically elaborates on new trade theories based on the latest developments in international trade. The policy practice part introduces the trade policies, measures, and current situations of various countries from different perspectives, analyzing the impact of various theories and policies on international trade. The textbook intersperses relevant columns and case studies, and each chapter ends with key concepts and review questions to help students master and solidify their knowledge of international trade theory and policy, deepen their understanding, broaden their horizons, consider issues from the perspective of an open economy, and cultivate their ability for independent thinking and analysis and resolution of real-world problems.
