Publisher's Synopsis
Free Trade, Protection, Dumping, Bounties And Preferential Tariffs is a book written by Henry A. Agacy in 1903. The book is a comprehensive examination of the economic policies of free trade and protectionism, as well as the concepts of dumping, bounties, and preferential tariffs. The author explores the arguments for and against these policies, and provides historical examples of their implementation and effects on various economies. Agacy starts by defining the terms and concepts related to international trade, such as tariffs, subsidies, and quotas. He then delves into the debate between free trade and protectionism, examining the economic theories behind each and their practical applications. The author also discusses the role of dumping, which is when a country exports goods at a lower price than they are sold domestically, and how it affects competition in the global market. Furthermore, the book explores the use of bounties, which are government subsidies given to domestic producers to encourage production and exportation. Agacy also discusses preferential tariffs, which are trade agreements between countries that offer reduced tariffs to each other's goods. Overall, Free Trade, Protection, Dumping, Bounties And Preferential Tariffs is a thorough examination of the economic policies that govern international trade. The book provides a historical perspective on these policies and their effects on different economies, making it a valuable resource for students, scholars, and policymakers interested in the subject.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
