Trade and Transitions A Comparative Analysis of Adjustment Policies

Langue : Anglais

Auteurs :

Couverture de l’ouvrage Trade and Transitions

Faced with increased levels of international competition and mounting budget deficits some developed, Western economies have responded by introducing trade restrictions. This book uses a comparative analysis of eight leading industrial nations (including Japan, the United States, West Germany and Britain) to demonstrate that such policies are mistaken. Alternatives to trade restrictions, including subsidies for industries and labour-market policy instruments are also shown to have their drawbacks, and the book emphasises the need for countries to find and exploit policies which fulfil their own political and social needs but which are least injurious to their trading partners.

1. A Conceptual Framework for Evaluating Alternative Trade-Related Adjustment Policies 2. Trade Protection Instruments 3. Industrial Subsidies as a Response to Sectoral Decline 4. Labour Market Adjustment Policies 5. The Politics of Adjustment 6. The Reform Agenda
Marsha Chandler, Robert Howse, Michael Trebilcock
Based on a comparative study of eight leading industrial powers this book argues that `new protectionism' is economically inefficient and countries should try to develop the policies which are least harmful to their trading partners.
