Following the Second World War, the United States would become the
leading 'neoliberal' proponent of international trade
liberalization. Yet for nearly a century before, American foreign
trade policy was dominated by extreme economic nationalism. What
brought about this pronounced ideological, political, and economic
about-face? How did it affect Anglo-American imperialism? What were
the repercussions for the global capitalist order? In answering
these questions, The 'Conspiracy' of Free Trade offers the first
detailed account of the controversial Anglo-American struggle over
empire and economic globalization in the mid- to late-nineteenth
century. The book reinterprets Anglo-American imperialism through
the global interplay between Victorian free-trade cosmopolitanism
and economic nationalism, uncovering how imperial expansion and
economic integration were mired in political and ideological
conflict. Beginning in the 1840s, this conspiratorial struggle over
political economy would rip apart the Republican Party, reshape the
Democratic Party, and redirect Anglo-American imperial expansion
for decades to come.
