Unit 4: Tariffs and trade

Click here to access an article on EU tariffs. This is a timely reminder that protectionism is once again on the agenda as the EU (and other trade blocs) fight to maintain market share in a recession hit world economy.

The article highlights the issues regarding tariffs as a specific protectionist tool. Trade blocs are open to retaliation, there are many advantages, but also consequences for such a policy.

Excellent application marks for any question on this topic.
