Arias again states, “You should redoubt the power of a king…Remember, kings wish to be absolute.” This, as Corneille writes constitutes a bad king. This not only exemplifies a bad king, but also portrays a tyrant. If one is afraid of the actions of the king, as well as how much power the king has, then the king simply has too much power and jurisdiction.

The Ricardian model is a classical theory that says comparative advantage which comes as a result of differences in technologies across countries is what determines the pattern of trade. Hecksher-Ohlin’s model on the other hand says, trade comes as a result of differences in resource endowment in each country. The objective of this essay is therefore to compare and contrast the classical (Ricardian model) and Heckscher-Ohlin (HO) model of the commodity composition of trade and discuss the…

The Hecksher-Ohlin theory famously states about international trade, that in a two-nation, two-commodity model, considering that one of the nations and one of the commodities is labour intensive, and the other nation and the other commodity is capital intensive, (labour and capital being the only factors of production) that the capital intensive nation produces and exports the capital intensive good, while the labour intensive nation produces and exports the labour intensive good.
