MIT, and latterly Macquarie University. Kemp was a Member of

This book brings together several essays on the current state of
the theory of international trade. As the book's title suggests,
the essays are critical of several major components of the existing
theory; thus, the Ricardian principle of comparative advantage, the
ancient and widely accepted belief that international free trade is
potentially beneficial for all countries, and the more recently
developed normative analysis of international transfers (foreign
aid, war indemnities) are shown to be seriously defective.
