FREE TRADE and RICARDO’s COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE


Please see the basic, hopefully educational video by David Dixon Lentz (or, as he prefers just David Lentz) above. It is intended to accurately convey information and/or theories which, we believe are either readily accepted as being valid by accredited colleges and universities and/or have an objective rational basis that justifies further investigation by those institutions. (In other words, you are likely to hear lectures pretty much like what you hear and see in the video.) Mr. Lentz has taught Finance, Accounting and International Business at the University level.

No one has a corner on the truth and if we don’t make a mistake now and then, well….we just aren’t pushing ourselves hard enough! As such, constructive comments, criticisms and corrections are more than welcomed


The subject of the video above is: Free Trade Theory, David Ricardo’s Model of Comparative Advantage. Adam Smith and Mercantilism are discussed. International Trade International Business.
