Comparative Advantage: Gains From Trade (2D)

This 2D companion drives the same Ricardian two-country, two-good trade model as the 3D version through the textbook diagram it is usually taught with: both countries' production-possibility frontiers plotted on one shared cloth/wine axis, each with its autarky point, its current production point and its post-trade consumption point, next to a bar chart comparing combined world cloth, wine and total value before and after specialization and trade.
