Publisher's Synopsis
""Free Trade and Protection: An Inquiry into the Causes Which Have Retarded the General Adoption of Free Trade"" is a book written by Henry Fawcett in 1878. The book discusses the economic theory of free trade and protectionism and examines the reasons why free trade has not been universally adopted. Fawcett argues that protectionism is often driven by political interests rather than economic considerations and that free trade can benefit all countries involved in international trade. He also addresses the potential negative effects of free trade, such as the displacement of workers in certain industries. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and economics of trade policy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
