Analysis On China’s Trade Competitiveness From The Perspective Of Marx’s International Specialization Theory

With the wide application of modern science and technology in production, therapid development of Mult-National Companies and the rise of developing countries,the breadth and depth of international specialization becomes more increased, whichprovides more opportunities for all the countries. It is more important that how to keepthe competitive advantage in brand-new style of international specialization. Therefore,the research on China’s trade competitiveness in global marketing, which bases onMarxist international specialization theories, not only means to improve China’sinternational trade position, but also has reference meaning for future tradedevelopment in the increasing complex international specialization.The paper is from the four points to analysis China’s trade competitiveness. Thefirst part mainly discusses Marx’s basic theory of division of labor and internationalspecialization, including the basic concepts and types of division of labor, therelationship between division of labor and productivity, the history of the developmentand nature of international specialization, and the relationship between internationalspecialization and international trade. The second part mainly discusses therelationship between international specialization and the trade competitive advantageseparately from the perspective of the country, industry and enterprise. The third partmainly describes the status of China’s trade competitiveness and the existing problemsbased on the statistical data, and from the perspective of the division of labor toanalyze. The last part mainly afford theoretical support and policy suggestions to theproblems of China’s trade competitiveness from the three aspects of the country,industry and enterprise.For a long time, the Marx’s theory of division labor takes the important positionin economic theory research. It is not only the theoretical basis of Marx’s theory ofgeneral product exchange, but also the theoretical foundation of Marx’s internationaltrade development research. With the social and economic progress continually, the capacity of people’s production and exchange constantly improves, and the socialdivision of labor constantly deepens. The international specialization formed as thesocial division of labor across the national boundaries. The international specializationis the basis of the international trade. The patterns and forms of involving in theinternational specialization of each country not only determine the structure of thecountry’s foreign trade, but also affect the country’s international trade interests.Marx’s division of labor theory stresses that the social division of labor can increasethe productivity, and the productivity is the determinant of promoting the formationand development of the international specialization. Furthermore, the development ofproductivity mainly stands for a country’s competitiveness. The key factors of acountry’s trade competitiveness are the degree of development of the productive forces.The performance of a national productivity ultimately depends on the production orcompetitiveness capacity of enterprise and industry. Therefore, giving full play to theguiding role of the national government, to promote the level of enterprise andindustry’s collaboration in the international specialization, and to enhance the status ofinvolving in the international specialization are the main outlet of getting the divisionof labor interests and enhancing China’s trade competitiveness.
