章節(jié)摘錄
Large ocean-going cargo vessels are needed to support these patterns in international trade and deliver merchandise from one shore to another. In fact, Greek and Japanese mer-chant ships own over 30 percent of the worlds total capacity (measured in tons shipped, or tonnage) of merchant ships. As a whole, the developing countries share of the total is ris-ing and today stands at nearly 20 percent.4 Who Trades with Whom? Not surprisingly, a broad pattern of merchandise trade among the worlds nations tends to persist. Trade between the worlds high-income econ0mies accounts for roughly 60 percent of total world merchandise trade. Two-way trade between high-income countries and low- and middle-income nations accounts for about 34 percentof world merchandise trade. Meanwhile, merchandise trade between low- and middle-income nations accounts for only about 6 percent of total world trade. These figures reveal the low purchasing power of the worlds poorest nations and indicate their general lack of economic development. Table 5.2 shows trade data for the major regions of the world economy. The number representing intraregional exports for Europe (which is at the intersection of the row and column titled "Europe") immediately stands out. This number tells us almost $3 trillion (nearly 74 percent) of Europes exports are destined for other European nations. In contrast, intraregional exports account for 22 percent of all exports in Asia and 56 percent of exports in North America. These data underscore the rationale behind, and results of, efforts toward European regional integration called the European Union---discussed fully in Chapter 8. Data in Table 5.2 also reveal why headlines in the United States often complain that Asias markets are not open to goods from North America. The value of North American exports to Asia, $249 billion, is less than half the value of Asian exports to North America, $533 billion. But as economies across Asia develop, these figures should adjust to reflect their greater purchasing power. Some economists call this century the "Pacific century," referring to the expected future growth of Asian economies and the resulting shift in trade flows from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific. As these nations economies grow, it will become increasingly important for managers to fully understand how to do business in Asia. See this chapters Global Managers Briefcase titled "Building Good Relations in the Pacific Rim" for some pointers on doing business in Pacific Rim nations. Trade Dependence and Independence All countries fall on a continuum of trade interdependencies, with total dependence on another country at one end, and total independence from other countries at the other end. Complete independence was considered desirable from the sixteenth century through much of the eighteenth. Some remote island nations were completely independent simply because they lacked methods of transportation to engage in trade. However, today this is far less common, and isolationism is generally considered undesirable. Effect on Developing and Transition Nations Developing and transition nations that share borders with developed countries are often dependent on their wealthier neighbors.Trade dependency has been a blessing for many central and eastern European nations. A large number of joint ventures now bridge the borders between Germany and its neigh-bors---Germany recently had more than 6,000 joint ventures in Hungary alone. Germany also is the single-most important trading partner of the central and eastern European nations that in 2004 joined the European Union (www.europa.eu). To gain an advantage over the competition, German firms are combining German technology with relatively low-cost labor in Central and Eastern Europe. For example, Opel (www.opel.com), the German arm of General Motors Corporation (www.gm.com), built a $440 million plant in Szentgotthard,Hungary, to make parts for and assemble its Astra hatchbacks destined for export. Dangers of Trade Dependency Trade dependency can be dangerous. If the nation that is depended on experiences economic recession or political turmoil, the dependent nation can experience serious economic problems. Trade dependency is causing concern today in Mexico.
