The Premises Of Free Trade Examined (1881) (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781169554825)

""The Premises of Free Trade Examined"" is a book written by George Basil Dixwell in 1881. The book explores the concept of free trade and questions its validity as a beneficial economic policy. Dixwell presents arguments against free trade, arguing that it leads to economic inequality, unemployment, and a loss of national sovereignty. He also critiques the idea of comparative advantage, which is often used to support free trade, and argues that it is not applicable in all situations. Dixwell suggests alternative economic policies that prioritize domestic production and protectionism, which he believes will lead to greater economic stability and prosperity. Overall, ""The Premises of Free Trade Examined"" offers a critical perspective on the concept of free trade and its potential consequences for society and the economy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
