Trade and capital flows play a vital role in these evolutions. In other words, economic globalization has been accompanied by the evolutions in international trade and capital markets.
In this paper, regarding the importance and the role of industry and mines in the backward and forward linkages with other economic sectors and their significance in the economic development, the globalization in Iranian industry and mines is examined by using the two indices of the level of international trade and the degree of trade integration.
Based on this research work, it is shown that the trade competition in industrial sector in Iran has advanced, to some extent, beyond the domestic borders. However, the mining sector stands at a higher level as compared with the international standard. Hence, a comparative advantage has been attained in some Iranian mineral activities. |
