Understand the concept of comparative advantage: it occurs when a country can produce a good at a lower opportunity cost than another country.
Recognize that differences in opportunity costs across countries create incentives for each country to specialize in producing goods where they have a comparative advantage.
Specialization based on comparative advantage leads countries to produce more efficiently and trade with others to obtain goods they produce less efficiently.
This specialization and trade foster the development of worldwide supply chains, as countries rely on each other for different components and products.
In contrast, uniform trade restrictions, identical opportunity costs, or autarky reduce or eliminate the benefits of specialization and trade, thus hindering the formation of global supply chains.
