""Free Trade and Protection"" is a book written by Henry Fawcett, first published in 1878. The book is an inquiry into the causes that have prevented the general adoption of free trade policies in various countries around the world. Fawcett argues that the benefits of free trade, such as increased economic growth and improved living standards, are often overshadowed by protectionist policies that benefit specific industries or groups at the expense of the general population. He examines the historical and political factors that have contributed to the prevalence of protectionism, including the influence of special interest groups and the fear of foreign competition. Fawcett also provides examples of countries that have successfully adopted free trade policies and reaped the benefits. The book is a comprehensive analysis of the economic and political factors that have shaped international trade policies over time and remains relevant today in the ongoing debate over free trade versus protectionism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
