Trade Barriers and Policy
Countries sometimes restrict trade using tools like tariffs, a tax on imported goods that raises their price, and quotas, a limit on the quantity of a good that can be imported. These barriers are often intended to protect domestic producers and jobs in a specific industry from foreign competition, but they typically raise prices for domestic consumers and can invite other countries to retaliate with their own trade barriers, so the overall costs and benefits of a specific trade barrier are usually genuinely disputed rather than obviously one-sided.
