产品内分工对当代国际贸易发展的影响分析

在经济全球化浪潮不断推进的过程中,信息技术的进步与贸易及投资自由化的进展使得全球产业分工深化到特定产品生产流程所包含的生产区段或工序层次,即产品内分工。这种全球产业分工的新模式在微观层面体现为跨国公司国际生产组织方式的调整,即企业价值链在全球范围内的广泛分解。在宏观层面体现为不同国家在特定产品的生产流程中的序贯联系日益加强。产品内分工的盛行对当代国际贸易发展产生了深远的影响:一是对传统的国际分工和贸易理论提出了挑战,并拓展了比较优势的内涵;二是为解读当代国际贸易的集约化增长提供了新的视角;三是导致了国际贸易流动性质上的变化。

Intra-product Specialization and the Impacts on International Trade

In the process of economic globalization,the advance of information technology and the progress of world trade and investment liberalization foster a finer and more complicate international division of labor,which is manifested itself through extending specialization to the level of certain fragments or segments of the production process of a specific product,which is called intra-product specialization. Viewing from a microcosmic angle,multinational corporations have been adjusting the organization of international production by disintegrating the international production and other functional activities finely according to the comparative advantages of different locations. Intra-product specialization has brought up challenges and hence extensions to traditional trade theories and has actually resulted in the great changes of international trade in the flowing nature.
