Features: Traditional textbooks analyzing international trade and labor mobility generally do not consider the fundamental characteristics of welfare states, such as income maintenance programs, income redistribution programs, and pension plans. Similarly, financial theory and corporate capital structure theory rarely analyze international capital flows or their impact on the real economy. This book fills a gap in theoretical research by linking some seemingly unrelated factors in economics and analyzing them within a continuous framework. This research lays the foundation for incorporating capital, labor, and financial factors into a unified global analysis. The book can serve as a topic for senior undergraduate and graduate courses in international economics and public economics, as well as a reference for applied researchers and policy experts.
