Answer:
New Trade Theory
Explanation:
New Trade Theory explains one reason why some countries specialize in specific industries for factors other than natural resources, quantity of labor force, or comparative advantage.
This reason is that some industries can only support a limited number of firms around the world. An example of this is the aeronautic industry, which only has a few players, with two giant firms dominating above all others: Boeing (US), and Airbus (Europe).
While the United States and the European Union can specialize in making planes through their respective giant companies, most other countries in the world cannot do so: they neither have the techology, nor the expertise, nor the capital to create a successful competitor for Aribus or Boeing. It is not even clear if the market needs or would support a third industry giant either.
