Abstract

Countries gain and lose territories over time, generating territory flows that represent the transfer of territorial sovereignty. Countries also export and import goods, creating trade flows that represent the transfer of merchandise ownership. We find a substitution between these two international flows during the years 1870 and 2008; that is, country pairs with greater trade flows have smaller territory flows. This indicates how international trade enhances international security: reciprocal goods transactions discourage irreciprocal territorial exchanges.

1870 至 2008 年间的领土流量和贸易流量

随着时间的推移，国家会获得或失去领土，从而产生代表领土主权转移的领土流量。各国也会出口和进口商品，从而产生代表商品所有权转移的贸易流量。我们发现，在 1870 年至 2008 年期间，这两种国际流动之间存在替代关系；也就是说，贸易流动越大的国家对，领土流动就越小。这表明国际贸易如何加强了国际安全：互惠的商品交易阻止了非互惠的领土交换。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization is devoted to theoretical and empirical research concerning economic decision, organization and behavior and to economic change in all its aspects. Its specific purposes are to foster an improved understanding of how human cognitive, computational and informational characteristics influence the working of economic organizations and market economies and how an economy structural features lead to various types of micro and macro behavior, to changing patterns of development and to institutional evolution. Research with these purposes that explore the interrelations of economics with other disciplines such as biology, psychology, law, anthropology, sociology and mathematics is particularly welcome.
