C.it hinders foreign research and development in an economy.
解释:
Solution
- Correct. Detractors of open trade emphasize the likelihood of heightened income disparities and the potential job displacement in developed nations due to intensified import competition.
- Incorrect. With open trade, firms often reap the benefits of broader economies of scale, leading to a decrease in the average cost of production by tapping into expansive markets.
- Incorrect. Embracing trade can pave the way for a richer exchange of knowledge, a more fluid interchange of technical proficiency, and a keen sense of evolving consumer predilections in worldwide markets. It can also inspire the establishment of robust, high-quality institutions and strategies that invigorate domestic innovation. Studies, like the one by Coe and Helpman in 1995, indicate the advantageous influence of international research and development (R&D) on a nation's productivity, an effect that amplifies when a nation becomes more receptive to international trade.
