Abstract

Marxism thinks that international labor division is to more and more detailed specialization as development of market economy. Almost countries are involved into the system of labor division. Modern international labor division shows its characteristics of multi-stages and multi-levels. That is reason why comparative advantage is changing in different countries very greatly. It affects the employment of labor significantly. This is not a kind of threat from any country but mostly from both of technical innovation and the globalization of production. Government policy should focus on how to use these factors to overcome the current challenge. In fact, international economic protectionism becomes a new situation in period of weak economic recovery.
