The Analysis On International Competitiveness Of China's Trade In Service

With the rapid development of international trade in service and its special function to promote the whole efficiency and the quality of the national economy, the studies of trade in service have become the advanced topic worldwide to research. This paper is devoted to analyze the international competitiveness of China's trade in service and its policy suggestions.This thesis firstly elaborates the basic concept of the trade in service, including the definition, classification and characteristics of the trade in service. Then it applies separately the traditional comparative advantage theory and competitive advantage theory into the domain of the trade in service as the basic theory of the studies on international competitiveness of trade in service, which discovered the comparative advantage based on the perfect competition as well as the immobile factors is static advantage, while the competitive advantage based on the imperfect competition as well as the mobile factors is dynamic advantage. Comparative advantage is the precondition to gain the competitive advantage, and the competitive advantage is able to transform the potential comparative advantage into the realistic one. Both of the comparative and competitive advantages are indispensable to improve the competitiveness. For the third part, full accurate data and the vivid graph are used to analyze the present situation of the trade in service of our country from the overall, tendency and the structure aspects. More importantly, this paper makes a quantitative analysis on the international competitiveness of china's trade in service. Through the comparison of the coefficients about the international competitiveness, it can be seen that china's trade in service is generally at a disadvantageous position, particularly those new-type service industries such as capital-intensive type and technology-intensive type in which the disadvantages are more obvious, while the traditional service industries are only at a minor comparative advantage. The final part serves to put forward the policy suggestions to improve the international competitiveness on trade in service of our country: On the one hand, we should take full advantage of the comparative advantage to promote the level and the structure of the service industry in our country;On the other hand, competitive advantage shouldbe fully used to enhance the international competitiveness on trade in service from the macroscopic, central and microscopic view to obey the rules that "comparative advantage ~ advanced comparative advantage — competitive advantage"...
