Abstract: Abstract The present inquiry revisits my past endeavours to reveal certain moral scientific aspects of the well-known Stolper–Samuelson theorem and the related less well-known proposal to ‘bribe’ for free trade. My inquiries have assumed, and so does the present one, two identical countries, identically endowed with homogeneous labour and capital (or two factors) but with internationally different tastes.
