Answer to Question 1

I would expect my students to address the following:

 That in the prior period, trade was mostly in agricultural products and commodities, whereas today capital goods play an increasingly important role.
 That labor may have been more mobile in the past than it is today due to changes in immigration policies.
 That capital was mobile in both periods, but might be more so today, especially given new instruments.
 That changes in transportation and communication were significant in both periods in terms of reducing transaction costs and encouraging product and factor mobility.
