How Nations Grow Rich: The Case for Free Trade
There can be no doubt, writes economist Melvyn Krauss, that the prosperity of the industrial nations since the Second World War has been due largely to global specialization and interdependence. No one country does all tasks today—products are designed in one country, produced in another and assembled in a third. The increased standard of living resulting from global specialization in turn has led to the growth of the modern welfare state, includ…

cannot dominate it, in the sense that there is an improvement in the real income of the transferor, provided that the initial free trade equilibrium is stable (cf. Samuelson, 1941, and Mundell, 1968, pp. 1721). Recently, Harry Johnson and I referred to the analogy between the transfer of purchasing power between countries in the world economy and the transfer of purchasing power between factor-owners in a closed economy (Krauss and Johnson, 1974,…
General Equilibrium Analysis: A Micro-Economic Text
This is a new kind of textbook in microeconomic theory. In place of the usual concentration on partial equilibrium analysis and discussion of a standard series of topics, the authors seek to introduce the student from the start to the general equilibrium approach to microeconomics, in the form of the two-sector model. This model is then applied to a variety of subjects in different special fields of economic analysis: welfare economics, internati…
International Mobility and Movement of Capital
On the Shape and Location of the Production Possibility Curve
In a recent issue of this Journal, James R. Melvin developed a useful diagrammatic technique for deriving the production possibility curve in the Lerner-Pearce diagram that is analogous to the Savosnick construction in the Edgeworth-Bowley contract box.' Among other things, Melvin produces the proposition that concavity to the origin of the production possibility curve increases around fixed endpoints when in the two-sector model of general equil…

Differential Tax Incidence: Large versus Small Tax Changes
The Theory of Tax Incidence: A Diagrammatic Analysis
Some fifteen years ago, Johnson [2]1 applied the concept of the factor production block to the analysis of the distributional effects of an excise tax. Since then, surprisingly little use has been made of geometrical methods in tax incidence theory, as the major advances in this field have been expressed either through verbal argument or, more recently, algebra and differential calculus. This oversight does not represent a healthy development bot…
