Infant industry protection can come in the form of Tariffs, Quotas, Non-Tariff-Barriers or any inhibition of free trade in order to protect a *particular* industry (rather than the whole economy) as that particular industry or firm achieves dynamic increasing returns (costs fall with cumulative production rather than with the current rate of production- in other words, costs fall as the firm gains experience). The argument of using tariffs to protect an infant industry are only valid when 1) the protection is for a firm or industry rather than the whole economy, 2) the industry is a potential source for comparative advantage and 3) the protection (usually a tariff) is temporary and ends when the firm becomes internationally competitive (this is especially difficult due to issues with political economy)
