评分跨国贸易深受政治影响。一个国家对外贸易政策也会因为顺逆差、国内经济或政治环境的改变而改变,因而是波动的、不确定的、因时制宜的,一旦产生贸易摩擦或冲突,好像更是难以琢磨的。然而,如果将时间拉长,回到历史长河中,往往也能看见一些相对稳定的规律。 经济史学家欧文(...

Should the United States be open to commerce with other countries, or should it protect domestic industries from foreign competition? This question has been the source of bitter political conflict throughout American history. Such conflict was inevitable, James Madison argued in The Federalist Papers, because trade policy involves clashing economic interests. The struggle between the winners and losers from trade has always been fierce because dollars and jobs are at stake: depending on what policy is chosen, some industries, farmers, and workers will prosper, while others will suffer.
Douglas A. Irwin’s Clashing over Commerce is the most authoritative and comprehensive history of US trade policy to date, offering a clear picture of the various economic and political forces that have shaped it. From the start, trade policy divided the nation—first when Thomas Jefferson declared an embargo on all foreign trade and then when South Carolina threatened to secede from the Union over excessive taxes on imports. The Civil War saw a shift toward protectionism, which then came under constant political attack. Then, controversy over the Smoot-Hawley tariff during the Great Depression led to a policy shift toward freer trade, involving trade agreements that eventually produced the World Trade Organization. Irwin makes sense of this turbulent history by showing how different economic interests tend to be grouped geographically, meaning that every proposed policy change found ready champions and opponents in Congress.
As the Trump administration considers making major changes to US trade policy, Irwin’s sweeping historical perspective helps illuminate the current debate. Deeply researched and rich with insight and detail, Clashing over Commerce provides valuable and enduring insights into US trade policy past and present.
Remarkable work! Thorough analysis of US trade history, which explains the on-going clashes between protectionists and free trade advocates. It totally explains the Trump administration’s action.
评分对美国贸易政策从建国到2017年的讨论,每一项贸易法案出台的背景、历程和评价,可谓事无巨细。仔细看了前10章(到1950年),感觉美国两党之间的各种拉锯从古到今变化不大——基本上有了经济危机和国外进口威胁就可能加税,能不能通过很大程度上取决于Congress在谁手里;也见证了美国从一个18世纪不怎么重要的国家变成二战之后重塑世界秩序的主要力量,这一变化让美国二战之后努力推动多边贸易协定。因为太细致了,从第三章开始一直在记笔记,最后三章也实在看不动了,先这样吧,也能理解Irwin为啥在致谢里开玩笑说“a few heroic individuals took the time to read the entire manuscript”。一个学者一辈子能写出这么一本就行了……
