Présentation de l'éditeur
Third Edition I have brought the statistics down to date, and, besides this, I have added, inC hapter II., some observations on the utterances of gthe latest champions of Protection Lord Penzance .and Mr. Henry H. Howorth. I have also added a chapter (XXV.) on the effect of Protection on wages and employment ;another (C hapter XXVII.) on Protection to I rish manufactures ;another (C hapter XXXV.) on the foreign trade of Germany; three more (viz. Chapters XLL, XLIIL, and XLIV.) on the present depression in France, Russia, and Belgium ;o and another (C hapter XLV.) containing remarks on 22 the present commercial depression generally. In writing these chapters I have availed myself largely 2of the very interesting reports made to the Royal Commission on tlie Depression ofT rade by Her Majesty srepresentatives in foreign countries. Since the previous editions were written many circumstances have changed. The hybrid. Fair Trade, has, by intercrossing with its parent species, largely reverted to the parent stock, and its defenders have almost dropped the mask by which they at first gattempted to conceal the obnoxious features of Progs tection. The feeling for union with the Colonies has grown in strength. The depression in trade has .

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a re-release of a 19th-century defense of free trade, with updates to some statistics and other content to bring it into more current relevance. It is a thorough defense of free trade against the arguments of protectionists, who argue that certain industries in a country should be protected from foreign competition in order to maintain employment in those sectors. The author explores reasons why that is a flawed argument, and provides plenty of examples from history. The book provides a solid theoretical foundation for the concept of comparative advantage in economics, and supports this with data on trade around the globe in the 19th century. The author also looks at the effect of free trade on wages and employment, and on international trade, including the effect on agricultural economies. The book finishes with the author's thoughts on the unfair nature of a tax on food, his view of commercial treaties, and a conclusion that argues that in this era, as in the 19th century, governments can do little or nothing to create trade; but they can always check it. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334471063_0
