autarky
封闭经济

Self-sufficiency. Authoritarian regimes sometimes pursue a policy of autarky in order to reduce their dependence on other countries. Economists generally regard this approach as inefficient since trade in goods and services allows a country to specialise in those activities which it is best at producing, exploiting comparative advantage.
自给自足。独裁政权有时奉行自给自足的政策,以减少对其他国家的依赖。经济学家普遍认为这种方法效率低下,因为商品和服务贸易使一个国家能够利用比较优势专门从事其最擅长生产的活动。
