world output, international trade, and what might happen if trade stopped. World Trade and World Output World trade more than tripled between 1980 and 2002, but world output "only doubled"
during that same period (Dean). "The rise in trade relative to output is common across areas and regions, although the relative growth in trade and output varies greatly" (Dean). Why
is this so? Many factors influence this relationship, but Dean suggests three major influences. First, the cost of trade is falling. "Transportation, communication and search, currency exchange and tariffs are
