An individual’s production pattern is defined by (li1, Consumer-producers’ Decisions and Pattern of Specialization 37 li2, … lim), where m is the number goods and lij∈[0, 1]. For simplicity we assume that m = M, where M is population size. A structure of production of all individuals’ production patterns can be defined by the matrix L = {lij}. The level and pattern of division of labor for society is determined by the features of the matrix L. The features of the matrix can be described by various indices, such as the Gini coefficient, which describes the degree of concentration of production, and the variance of lij.

534, p. 539) explores a typical feature of network effects of the division of labor and related market. The theorem states that “the securing of increasing returns depends on the progressive division of labor. … not only the division of labor depends upon the extent of the market, but the extent of the market also depends upon the division of labor. ” Young also believed that Marshall’s marginal analysis of demand and supply cannot be used to explain network size of division of labor. Discuss why were not Young’s insights into the limitations of the concept of economies of scale formalized and taught in the mainstream textbooks until recently?

Part III, Inframarginal Analysis of Trade and Globalization, applies the new framework to develop endogenous trade theory and the notion of endogenous comparative advantage. The results provide interesting support for Smith’s view that differences in productivity between different specialists are the consequence rather than the cause of the division of labor. Then conventional exogenous comparative advantages in productivity and endowment are introduced to investigate the implications of the coexistence of endogenous and exogenous comparative advantage for economic analysis.
