international trade Ricardo's theory on international trade focused on comparative costs and looked at how a country could gain from trade when it had relatively lower costs (i.e. a comparative advantage). The original example focused on the trade in wine and cloth between England and Portugal.

The other country would therefore specialise in the other good, and the two countries could then trade.
