Recensione

"...the study makes a substantial contribution to our understanding of the 1930s." American Historical Review

"This thorough account of the complexities and frustration of bilateral trade negotiations in conditions of widespread unemployment is a moral tale for policymakers and a valuable contribution to the history of international economic policy." Journal of Economic History

"...a most learned book, performing a task which had to be done at some time. Specialists will be most grateful for it, and others will gain some insight into the narrow world of the 1930's." Sidney Pollard, The International History Review

Descrizione del libro

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.
