  • Absolute Advantage: When a country can produce a good more efficiently (using fewer resources) than another country.

  • Comparative Advantage: When a country can produce a good at a lower opportunity cost than another country, justifying specialization and trade.

  • Trade Barriers: Government-imposed restrictions like tariffs, quotas, or subsidies that limit or regulate international trade.
