Opis

When this book was published in 1934, Britain was a protectionist country. It is an analysis of the years of protectionism, measuring the effects on the country’s trade and economy, and the use of the tariff as an instrument of revenue, as a bargaining weapon, as a means of protecting domestic manufacturers, and as a means of fostering trade in the Empire.
