Use the international trade effect to explain why our aggregate demand curve is downward sloping


When the price level in the United States rises relative to the price level in other countries, American goods are more expensive for foreigners so they buy less while foreign goods are less expensive for Americans so they buy more of them. That is, U.S. exports decrease and imports increase so that when the price level in the U.S. increases, the aggregate quantity demanded in the U.S. decreases.
