PROTECTIONISM IN THE WORLD ECONOMY

Edited by Forrest H. Capie

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Protectionism has been an enduring feature in the world economy even though economic theory can prove that free trade is a superior regime. Protectionism is, of course, caused primarily by interest groups who lose out under free trade and are able to organize to protect their interests.
