Australia's trade policy -- Chapter 2. Globalisation and the free trade debate. 330 $aGlobalisation and trade liberalisation has significantly altered Australia's trading environment over the past thirty or so years. Historically, Australia used forms of protection such as tariffs and subsidies to raise the price of imports and keep domestic industries competitive, thereby adding to the cost of living as everyone paid extra to support these industries. However, since the 1980's Australia and many of the world's economies have implemented substantial reductions in trade barriers. This book provides an overview of Australia's trade performance and free trade agreements. What are the effects of increased trade liberalisation on Australia and developing countries? A range of opinions is also presented regarding Australia?s free trade practices. Do the benefits of globalisation outweigh its negative impacts? What are the advantages and disadvantages of free trade versus protectionism? Is free trade actually fair? 410 0$aIssues in society (Balmain, N.S.W.) ;$vv. 368. 606 $aFree trade$zAustralia 606 $aProtectionism$zAustralia 606 $aGlobalization$xEconomic aspects$zAustralia 606 $aInternational trade 615 0$aFree trade 615 0$aProtectionism 615 0$aGlobalization$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aInternational trade. 676 $a382.710994 701 $aHealey$b Justin$01086113 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813700903321 996 $aFree trade and globalisation$94005495 997 $aUNINA
