美国对华贸易的政治经济学分析

美国对华贸易虽以保持稳定的经贸关系为基础，但迫于国际政治需要和国内的集团利益，还存在许多不确定性。因此，中国应当从宏观上对中美经贸关系拓展战略性思维，加强开展商务外交，构建和谐的国际经贸新秩序；从微观上，完善政府的商务职能，加强企业国际化能力，充分发挥行业协会的作用，多方面促使中美贸易朝正常化方向发展。     

21世纪广西与东盟贸易发展趋势分析

21世纪以来,我国对东盟的贸易有了长足的进展,但广西对东盟贸易的发展与我国与东盟贸易的发展有所不同,我国对东盟贸易以入超为主,而广西与东盟贸易则以出超为主,近年来发展进出口额之间的差距在缩小。广西与东盟贸易尽管比过去已有较大发展,但在我国与东盟贸易中的比重还不大,发展速度也还有限,广西与东盟的人均贸易额还远远低于全国水平,但广西对东盟贸易的增长速度呈现出较强的后劲,广西与全国对东盟贸易的差距将不断的缩小。

Trade, education, and innovation: Prospects for the U.S. economy

This paper examines international trade issues as vital indicators of the economic prospects of the United States and other developed economies. In particular, it challenges misuses of the doctrine of mutual gains from trade and instead argues that comparative advantage does not guarantee increases in benefits to both trading partners—especially when one partner seeks to distort the market mechanism in its favor. In the face of such mercantilist or protectionist practices, efforts to advance innovation, without retaining manufacturing jobs, will not ensure continued prosperity, as the number of jobs entailed in the invention process is small compared with the number of jobs associated with manufacturing an innovative product for mass consumption. These matters call for the urgent rethinking of trade policy by the United States and other developed nations, if they are to balance their imports and exports and ensure continued economic growth.     

Book Reviews

This article examines some difficulties associated with the Haynes–Stone model and attempts to clarify how the model can be justified as representing the hypothesis that “quantity is demand determined and price is supply determined.” It also argues that the applications of such a model as was done by Haynes and Stone might not have resolved the controversies related to the Phillips curve and the supply function of exports (or imports).

The coevolution of trade agreements and investment treaties: Some evidence from network analysis

Regional trade agreements (RTAs) and bilateral investment treaties (BITs) are expected to promote trade and investment relationships. One critical feature of such agreements is the network, so the multiplex coevolution of RTAs and BITs should be captured by the dynamics of their two networks. Although many studies have examined the roles of RTAs and BITs, most studies do not account for crucial network properties. This study explores how RTAs and BITs coevolve by applying a stochastic actor-oriented model of multiplex network evolution. In particular, we examine the roles of (i) cross-network dyadic interinfluences and (ii) within- and cross-network preferential attachments to discuss the dynamic relationships between RTAs and BITs. The results are as follows. First, our estimation supports cross-network dyadic interinfluences. Countries that sign a BIT are willing to establish an RTA, while those that sign an RTA are reluctant to establish a BIT. Second, concerning preferential attachments, countries prefer to sign BITs with partners that have more RTA and BIT links. However, countries tend to form RTAs with partners that have more BIT links but are reluctant to form RTAs with those that have more RTA links. We discuss possible justifications for these results, including arguments regarding the benefits and costs associated with the formation of RTAs and BITs.
