Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book scrutinizes the merits and flaws of Free Trade as a national policy, specifically in Britain, against the rising tide of Protectionism and Tariff Reform during its time. The author argues that Free Trade, optimizing each nation's productivity and exchange of goods, is the surest path to material prosperity for all, especially when applied with reciprocity between nations. Criticizing the narrow, self-interested, and ultimately self-destructive views of Protectionists, the author contends that such policies actually hinder their nations' economic growth, increase unemployment, and reduce overall prosperity, while doing nothing to address the real underlying causes of social problems like poverty and inequality. The author argues that these concerns are best addressed through non-protectionist means, such as education, public health, and workers' rights. This book dismisses Protectionism as economically unsound and socially unjust and presents a powerful case for Free Trade as the path to a more prosperous and equitable future. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
