These interactions and transactions include trade, investment, and transaction.The study of international trade examines the movement of commodities and services over international borders, taking into account supply-and-demand dynamics, economic integration, international factor movements, and policy variables such as tariff rates and trade quotas.The study of international finance focuses on the movement of capital across international financial markets as well as the impact that variations in exchange rates have on these movement patterns.Both international monetary economics and international macroeconomics are fields of study that investigate the movement of money between nations and the consequences that this movement has on the economy of those nations as a whole.The study of issues and repercussions resulting from international hostilities, international negotiations, and international sanctions; national security and economic nationalism; and international agreements and observance are all examples of topics that fall under the umbrella of international political economy, which is a sub-category of international relations.
