  • Absolute Advantage

  • Comparative Advantage

  • Heckscher–Ohlin model

  • Free Trade Openness

Answer

The Heckscher–Ohlin model is an international trade theory that explains patterns of trade as a result of differences in countries' relative factor endowments. The model predicts that countries will export goods that use their abundant factors intensively and import goods that use their scarce factors intensively. For example, a country with an abundance of labor will export labor-intensive goods and import capital-intensive goods.
