Unit 4 Macro: Patterns of Trade

Jim Riley

10th September 2012

A lot of teachers will be looking at international trade as they start the A-level course and here are some resources that may be of use for teachers and pupils.

This week's Economist has a very interesting article on the pattern of world trade and the correlation between global GDP and levels of exports.

The ONS has some very useful data on UK trade with EU member states and non-EU countries.

This piece from the Guardian has appeared on tutor2u before and although it is slightly out of date, still contains some very useful data.

And finally another Economist article of how trade can help drive global recovery.
