Similarities of public goods and merit goods?

The strict definition of a Public Good is that it can be consumed jointly by many individuals at once without diminishing the quantity or quality of the available good or service, therefore, the concept of rival consumption does not apply. The concept of exclusion also does not apply to Public Goods as no-one can be denied the benefit of a public good for reasons of non payment - the Free Rider concept. Examples of Public Goods - clean air, protection from foreign invasion by a defense force etc. Merit Goods are those which the government or society has deemed beneficial or desirable...the benefits of merit goods are usually greater than they seem to the free market or individual. If the free market was left to provide these goods or services, it would probably undervalue them and not commit enough resources to their production. There are "externalities/spill over" benefits to Merit Goods that the individual or Price Market might overlook or undervalue. Merit Good examples - museums, social programs, music education in schools etc. Intervention by society to help drug addicts - anti smoking goods or services, Public Goods can be also be Merit Goods, but not all Merit Goods are Public Goods

What is export-import economic model?

From logic alone, I will assume that an export-import economic model is the means by which a country operates to fulfill its economic needs by both exporting its goods to other countries, as well as importing goods from other countries. Some countries sustain themselves primarily via exporting goods, such as many Latin American countries during the neocolonial era, while others have a strong domestic economy thus export little, and import the other goods their own industries are lacking.

Does the high sales of consumer goods reflects the power of advertising and not the real need of the society?

High sales of consumer goods often indicate the effectiveness of advertising, which can create perceived needs and desires that may not align with genuine societal requirements. While some products fulfill legitimate needs, many are driven by marketing strategies that emphasize lifestyle aspirations and trends. This suggests that consumer behavior is significantly influenced by advertising rather than essential needs, highlighting the power of branding and promotion in shaping purchasing decisions.
