Previous chapters focussed on MERCOSUR countries’ trade pattern and explained it in the light of theoretical approaches that emphasize the role of economies of scale and product differentiation. In the present chapter, the focus is on the opposite question, namely how trade can promote the fuller exploitation of economies of scale.
