These twelve essays by leading international economists explore crucial issues in U.S. trade policy today. Topics examined include the markets for automobile and automobile parts in the United States and Japan, the U.S. response to "unfair" trading practices such as dumping, and the effects of industry- and country-specific policies. Examples include high-technology and agricultural industries and off-shore assembly in U.S. border cities. The volume concludes that some policies can act to both protect imports and promote exports, that the threat of protectionist policies can often have effects that are as pronounced as their implementation, and that regulatory policy has as great an impact on trade and investment patterns as does trade policy itself. It will be of crucial interest to international trade economists, policy specialists, and political scientists. 410 0$aNational Bureau of Economic Research project report. 606 $aForeign trade promotion$zUnited States$vCongresses 606 $aProtectionism$zUnited States$vCongresses 606 $aFree trade$zUnited States$vCongresses 606 $aInvestments, Foreign$zUnited States$vCongresses 606 $aInvestments, American$vCongresses 607 $aUnited States$xCommercial policy$vCongresses 607 $aUnited States$vCommercial treaties$vCongresses 607 $aUnited States$xForeign economic relations$zJapan$vCongresses 607 $aJapan$xForeign economic relations$zUnited States$vCongresses 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aForeign trade promotion 615 0$aProtectionism 615 0$aFree trade 615 0$aInvestments, Foreign 615 0$aInvestments, American 676 $a382/.3/0973 701 $aFeenstra$b Robert C$0126602 712 02$aNational Bureau of Economic Research. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451153103321 996 $aThe effects of U.S. trade protection and promotion policies$91980462 997 $aUNINA
