An import-competing market has three lines: domestic demand, domestic supply and a flat world price that lets imports fill the gap between what locals buy and what locals make. Free trade sits at that world price with the biggest import gap and the lowest consumer price. Every protection tool closes the gap by moving one line: a tariff lifts the price line, a quota caps the gap so the price rises to clear it, and a subsidy shifts domestic supply out while the price stays at the world level. All three raise domestic output and create a deadweight loss; they differ in who pays and who collects. This is the real knowscape from knowhere, not a picture of one. Drag it. Watch what actually changes.
Every part of this topic is one argument: openness to the world grows the pie but doesn't decide who gets the slices. Trade, globalisation, investment flows, development — each is a case of the same trade-off between efficiency and equity, at home and between nations. The exam wants you to name the gain and name who pays for it.

Staff drop the barrier; suddenly people flow through fast.
Almost everyone's inside now, still streaming through the open door.
knowhere maps every concept to what it rests on and what rests on it — 4 underneath this one, 1 built on top. Each one says why, in a sentence, not as an arrow on a diagram.
Each one is its own knowscape in the app — built for how a particular student takes things in, not one explanation handed to everybody.
Every HSC and VCE concept in knowhere is built like this one — mapped to your curriculum, never capped by it. Free for a week. No lock-in, cancel inside the week and pay nothing.
Free for a week, then one payment. It ends itself after the last exam — no subscription.
Free for a week, then a plan you can stop any time.
