Protection of Manufactures in the United States

Abstract

The purpose of this study is two-fold. First, we want to take stock of the pattern of protection in the form of tariff and non-tariff trade barriers (NTBs) for manufacturing in the United States in the post-Tokyo Round period. In the process of doing so, we shall compare and contrast our findings with those of earlier studies. Our second objective is to explain the current pattern of protection and the reasons for its evolution over the past twenty years. The point of that exercise is to provide some understanding of the forces that shape protectionism in US manufacturing and to speculate on how that pattern of trade regulations may continue to evolve in the years ahead.
