Abstract: Abstract The study of international trade is divided into three general areas—trade policy analysis, trade theory, and empirical studies of trade. Trade policy analysis focuses on the economic impacts that different forms of government intervention have on international trade. It is well known that any government intervention in the economy has a redistributive role, resulting in winners and losers. The role of trade policy analysis is to identify the two groups, to estimate the benefits and costs of any measure that impacts trade and to improve the overall policy making process (Kerr 2007). Several approaches can be utilized to quantify the impacts of different trade/domestic measures, the choice of which depends on the type of research question.
