An updated look at global trade and why it remains as controversial
as ever Free trade is always under attack, more than ever in recent
years. The imposition of numerous U.S. tariffs in 2018, and the
retaliation those tariffs have drawn, has thrust trade issues to
the top of the policy agenda. Critics contend that free trade
brings economic pain, including plant closings and worker layoffs,
and that trade agreements serve corporate interests, undercut
domestic environmental regulations, and erode national sovereignty.
Why are global trade and agreements such as the Trans-Pacific
Partnership so controversial? Does free trade deserve its bad
reputation? In Free Trade under Fire, Douglas Irwin sweeps aside
the misconceptions that run rampant in the debate over trade and
gives readers a clear understanding of the issues involved. In its
fifth edition, the book has been updated to address the sweeping
new policy developments under the Trump administration and the
latest research on the impact of trade.
