The Korean Conflict Introduction How did the Korean conflict begin? What were the dynamics behind this war? How and why did the United States get involved? How was the Korean conflict linked to the Cold War? These and other issues will be addressed in this paper. Thesis: The Korean conflict was indeed the first battle of the Cold War, and the United States, although it was thoroughly unprepared when it went into battle, came out a winner even though the end was a virtual standoff. Background on how the U.S. become involved in the Korean conflict In the book, Truman and Korea: The Political Culture of the Early Cold War, author and professor Paul G. Pierpaoli Jr. explains that after World War II the Soviet Union emerged in a "new and more powerful stance," a direct challenge to America and its "…fragile allies" (Pierpaoli, 1999, p. 17). And notwithstanding the fact that the Cold War really began to take hold in 1947 and 1948 President Truman – known as a "legendary fiscal conservative" – was very reluctant to increase the amount of money spent on the military after WW II (Pierpaoli, 1999, p. 18).

The Ricardian theory of comparative advantage states that relative labor productivity determines trade advantage. In other words that the international difference in comparative advantage is due to relative labor productivity, and mostly technological differences between nations with some nations able to produce more than others due to their technological advantage. All other factors are assumed to be similar across the countries. The Ricardian model also argues that a country shows better profit in trade in those sectors where its productivity advantage is greater than its wage disadvantage or where its wage advantage is greater than its productivity disadvantage. Using algorithmic features, the model, in other words, argues that letting ai represent unit labor requirements, for sector b in country j: ai = Lb/Qjt where Q = the added value L = labor employment. The marginal products of labor, therefore results of labor, are supposed to be consistent with variations in labor/ technology. All are intertwined and conjoined. The competitiveness of the sector i in country j compared with another country also depends on the pitch of its wages as well as the bilateral exchange rate which determines the relative labor unit cost that is determined by that country's specific currency.
