Publisher's Synopsis
Sophisms of Protection is a book written by Frederic Bastiat in 1882. The book is a collection of essays that criticize the economic theory of protectionism, which advocates for the use of tariffs and trade barriers to protect domestic industries from foreign competition. Bastiat argues that protectionism is a fallacious economic theory that harms both domestic and foreign economies. He uses clear and concise language to explain complex economic concepts, making the book accessible to readers with no prior knowledge of economics. Sophisms of Protection is considered a classic in the field of economics and is still relevant today as protectionist policies continue to be debated and implemented around the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
