International Trade under President Reagan by Giuseppe La Barca Pdf
Under the Reagan presidency, the United States saw a period of strong economic growth. Analyzing the evolution of US foreign trade and its impact on the economy under the Reagan administration, Giuseppe La Barca shows how their economic achievements came about in part through well-exploited luck and reaffirmation of the supremacy of US economic interests. In stimulating its economy by consuming more than it produced, the US caused a growing trade deficit, appreciation of the dollar and an inflow of foreign capital that attracted prolonged differential interest rates. Offering a critical analysis of the evolution of US foreign trade and its impact on the national economy during the 1980s, this book shows how domestic and international economic policies shaped one another, and the impact they had in an increasingly globalizing world.
Trade Policy in the 1980s by C. Fred Bergsten,William R. Cline Pdf
Now available directly from: IIE 11 Dupont Circle, NW Washington, DC 20036 Tel: (202) 328-9000 The twenty contributions in this book, by academics (such as John H. Jackson and J. David Richardson) former government officials (such as C. Fred Bergsten and Harald B. Malmgren) and businessmen (such as John Diebold) address issues in the world trading system. This system which as been of critical importance to both economic prosperity and political harmony throughout the postwar period, now faces strains not seen since the 1930s. The book assesses the trends in trade policy and the setting within which these problems are occurring, including the impact of international monetary imbalances and the evolution of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. It reviews the objectives and approaches of the United States, the European Community, Japan, and the developing countries and presents detailed analyses of the major issues that have dominated trade policy in recent years: subsidies, safeguards, domestic adjustment to changes in trade patterns, agriculture, textiles and apparel, steel, and automobiles. Issues that will become important subjects of trade policy in this decade - services, trade-related investment practices, and trade in high technology products - are also covered. Proposals for responding to each of these problems are discussed in the book's conclusion. These include a "constrained ideal" for the world trading regime in the late 1980s and specific suggestions for dealing with the individual issues and for modernizing the whole system. Particular attention is paid to the relationship of trade policy to international monetary developments, the future of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, and the launching of new international negotiations to handle the wide array of industry and functional problems.

A Foreign Affairs Best Book of the Year: “Tells the history of American trade policy . . . [A] grand narrative [that] also debunks trade-policy myths.” —Economist Should the United States be open to commerce with other countries, or should it protect domestic industries from foreign competition? This question has been the source of bitter political conflict throughout American history. Such conflict was inevitable, James Madison argued in the Federalist Papers, because trade policy involves clashing economic interests. The struggle between the winners and losers from trade has always been fierce because dollars and jobs are at stake: depending on what policy is chosen, some industries, farmers, and workers will prosper, while others will suffer. Douglas A. Irwin’s Clashing over Commerce is the most authoritative and comprehensive history of US trade policy to date, offering a clear picture of the various economic and political forces that have shaped it. From the start, trade policy divided the nation—first when Thomas Jefferson declared an embargo on all foreign trade and then when South Carolina threatened to secede from the Union over excessive taxes on imports. The Civil War saw a shift toward protectionism, which then came under constant political attack. Then, controversy over the Smoot-Hawley tariff during the Great Depression led to a policy shift toward freer trade, involving trade agreements that eventually produced the World Trade Organization. Irwin makes sense of this turbulent history by showing how different economic interests tend to be grouped geographically, meaning that every proposed policy change found ready champions and opponents in Congress. Deeply researched and rich with insight and detail, Clashing over Commerce provides valuable and enduring insights into US trade policy past and present. “Combines scholarly analysis with a historian’s eye for trends and colorful details . . . readable and illuminating, for the trade expert and for all Americans wanting a deeper understanding of America’s evolving role in the global economy.” —National Review “Magisterial.” —Foreign Affairs
