4. Stolper Samuelson Theorem (p. 72) An event that changes (relative) product prices will raise the return of the factor used intensively in the rising price industry, and lower it for the other factor. Specialized Factor pattern: The more a factor is specialized, the more it stands to gain (or lose) from a change in the (relative) product price.

5. Stolper and Samuelson, in AA, ~1990

6. International Factor Price Equalization With the shift to free trade: For each factor, its rate of return becomes more similar between countries. Under ideal conditions, the factor’s real rate of return is the same in different countries. Example: Labor.  With no trade, the wage rate is high in the labor- scarce country (e.g., US). The wage rate is low in the labor-abundant country (R.o.W.).  With free trade, the import of labor-intensive products pushes the wage rate down in the labor- scarce country (e.g. US). The export of labor- intensive products pulls the wage rate up in the labor-abundant country (R.o.W.).
