47. Does exposure to competition with the world leader in a particular industry improve a firm’s productivity?
ANSWER:
The McKinsey institute found that higher productivity rested on the ability of mangers to
invent new and ever more efficient ways of making products and on the ability of engineers to
design products that are easy to make. The institute researchers observed that in the auto
industry in Japan or the food industry in the United States, managers and engineers do not
achieve innovations because they are smarter work harder or are better educated than their
peers. They do so because they are subjected to intense global competition, where improving
labor productivity is the key to success.

48. What are the essential arguments in favor of free trade?
ANSWER:
Proponents of an open trading system contend that international trade results in higher levels
of consumption and investment, lower prices of commodities, and a wider range of product
choices for consumers. Trade also enables workers to become more productive, and wages of
workers whose skills are more scarce internationally tend to rise.
