Free trade vs Protectionism?

Free trade removes barriers to supply and demand economics. It also allows for minimal regulatory oversight diminishing innovation and enterprise. Protectionist regimes can serve the functions of attempting to shield fledgling industries and create domestic market advantages. Protectionism instruments include import duties and tariffs, and forcing foreign firms into price controls, reinvestment, and co-production.


When talking about trade disputes protectionism and free trade represent what point of view?

In trade disputes, protectionism represents the viewpoint that governments should intervene to shield domestic industries from foreign competition through tariffs, quotas, and regulations. This perspective prioritizes national economic interests, job preservation, and local industry support. Conversely, the free trade viewpoint advocates for minimal government intervention, promoting open markets and competition, which can lead to lower prices and greater efficiency. Proponents argue that free trade fosters innovation and economic growth by allowing resources to be allocated more effectively across borders.


Protectionism is bad how and why?

Protectionism is a great idea if you are a politician and you want votes now. Protectionism means that an industry is being paid by the government to keep making a profit on goods that are being made at too high a price. In other words the business can't compete. So rather then forcing the business to close down naturally importers are charged for importing goods, this pushes up the price of the goods the extra money that is taken in by the government is then given to the inefficient local manufacturer so that he can make a product at a loss and still make money. Protectionism is bad because it protects inefficient businesses. So it is important that the U.S. practice free trade only with countries that also practice free trade.
