Abstract

Under the condition of economic opening-up, it is important for a country to maintain its dynamic comparative advantages for sustained economic growth. In the long run, however, due to the improvement in global economic integration as well as the transnational diffusion of trade policies, knowledge, and information, the source of comparative advantages is no longer merely technological gaps and resource endowments—the endogenous capacity that represents knowledge, innovation, and institutions has become another important source. This trend of dynamics in international trade and competition indicates that China must strengthen its comprehensive capacity of comparative advantage upgrading, transformation, and innovation in the process of economic growth. As the emerging economies represented by China run into growth bottlenecks after a period of high-speed growth, economists are faced with the question as to how to transform the model of economic development. It is against such a background that the combination of national absorptive capacity and economic development has gradually become a focus of new international political economics.
