"Although classical trade theory predicted that exchange across borders would leave both partners better off, not all individuals within the trading nations would benefit equally. Even if the populations at large gained from lowered prices because of trade, groups may be advantaged differently depending on what they consume. Moreover, even if they do benefit where consumption is concerned, these gains might not compensate sufficiently for the employment and wage losses that could come in the wake of expanded trade." https://bit.ly/3T7pDzq #derisking #decoupling #employment #wage #trade
