Overview

The purpose of this book is to explore some of the basic issues concerning economic trade and to argue that absolutism with respect to trade policy is, in fact, misguided. Free trade has never been observed in practice, but economic theorizing has persuaded the political dialogue that free trade ought to be the policy of the U.S. and every other country around the world.
