British Protectionism and the International Economy - Overseas Commercial Policy in the 1930s - Tim Rooth - Paperback Bog - Cambridge University Press

Description

Tim Rooth's comprehensive 1993 study examines the forces behind the British abandonment of free trade in the 1930s and discusses the way that Britain used protection to bargain for trade advantages in the markets of her chief suppliers of food and raw materials. This historical study has obvious parallels with current developments in world trade.
