Protectionist legislation supports domestic industries by imposing tariffs, quotas, and other trade barriers on imported goods.

While it can benefit certain sectors, it may also lead to higher prices for consumers and strained international trade relations. Overall, the goal is to bolster the national economy by prioritizing local businesses.
