The Economics and Ideology of Free Trade makes an important
contribution to the debate on globalization by providing much
needed intellectual and historical perspective on the issue of Free
Trade versus Protection. The book does so by reviewing and
integrating doctrinal history and past policy debates. Firstly the
book deals with the doctrinal evolution of the economics of free
trade from the mercantilists onwards (including the reaction
against classical economics by Friedrich List and the American
national economists). It then goes on to critically examine the
debates, policies and events that mark over two centuries of fierce
but intellectually stimulating controversy over free trade and
protection (including the debate on the Corn Laws, the British
Tariff Reform Controversy 1903, and Keynes on Protection). In this
stimulating and highly informative volume, the author summarizes
and encapsulates a vast amount of material in a singularly
economical and succinct manner that will appeal to academics and
students interested in the history of economic thought,
international economics, economic history and also international
relations.
