Richard Friman characterizes the new protectionism of the 1980s as a ragged patchwork of selectively applied, direct and indirect protectionist policies—including tariffs, "as, administrative restrictions, state subsidies, and production cartels. Why have various advanced industrial countries responded to postwar trade competition with different choices among these protectionist options? In Patchwork Protectionism, Friman explores this question through a comparative analysis of major trade policy decisions affecting the textile industries of the United States, Japan, and West Germany UR - https://doi.org/10.7591/9781501734724 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781501734724 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781501734724/original ER -
