Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the complexities of international business agreements, specifically those that restrict trade through price-fixing, market allocation, and output limitations. The author explores the growth of such agreements in the period between the World Wars, a time when global economic instability and political tensions fueled their formation. These agreements, often referred to as cartels, involved both private businesses and government participation. The author contends that cartels operate not only as private treaties but also as instruments of commercial policy, blurring the line between private business and government intervention. The book delves into the impact of cartels on international trade, analyzing their role in creating barriers and shaping trade channels. The author then examines the arguments both for and against cartels, ultimately proposing the need for international regulation and an international body to oversee and curb their potentially harmful practices. The book's insights on the complex relationship between business, government, and international trade remain essential for understanding the dynamics of global economic cooperation and the challenges of regulating international business practices.
