POLITICAL ECONOMY OF
INTERNATIONAL TRADE
STUDIES OF THE POLITICS OF
INTERNATIONAL TRADE AIM TO
EXPLAIN VARIATION IN THE DEMAND
FOR AND SUPPLY OF PROTECTION
OVER TIME, ACROSS COUNTRIES, AND
ACROSS SECTORS.
WHAT IS THE POLITICAL REALITY OF
INTERNATIONAL TRADE?
Free trade occurs when
governments do not attempt to
restrict what citizens can buy
from another country or what
they can sell to another country.
While many nations are nominally
commited to free trade, they tend
to intervene in international trade
to protect the interest of
politically important groups.
Why does the government intervene?
