Book excerpt: Excerpt from Justification of a Tariff Commission, Speech in the House That gentleman is a merchant of large experience. This is his first term in Congress, but his representative position as a merchant has made him familiar with the difficulties that beset the consideration of the tariff question. Through three successive Congresses he and his associates sought modification of the provisions of law regulating the means of ascertaining the proper duty on colored sugars. They found each Congress alike unable to deal successfully with that single question. He could have told us of the fate of the Robbins sugar bill in the Forty-fifth and of the Tucker bill in the last Congress. He could also have reminded us of the absence of proper provisions on this subject from the tariffs proposed by Mr. Morrison and his successor, Mr. Wood. His experience in this connection justifies me in saying that I do not believe that the tariff law can in many years be judiciously revised, unless it be by the aid of such a commission as this hill proposes. The Real Question at Issue. The controversy which has so fiercely raged in Congress for some years is not on questions of detail. Were it, these might be arranged; but it is on fundamental principles, being, Shall our impost duties be adjusted in accordance with the abstract doctrine of free trade as we have heard it presented by the gentleman from Virginia [Mr. Tucker] in the last two hours, or upon the basis of a national polity, the aim of which shall be the promotion of the power of the nation by the development of its material resources, and the quickening into profitable activity of the genius and aptitudes of its people? In the presence of this doctrinal controversy, judicious action and harmonious conclusions are impossible. There is no common ground on which the adherents of these antagonistic theories can meet for compromise. Sir, who can doubt that had the Committee on ways and Means reported a bill proposing to change the duty on any one commodity, it would have opened to the free-trade side of the House the coveted opportunity to force by innumerable amendments the discussion of every item in the tariff law!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Foreign Affairs Best Book of the Year: “Tells the history of American trade policy . . . [A] grand narrative [that] also debunks trade-policy myths.” —Economist Should the United States be open to commerce with other countries, or should it protect domestic industries from foreign competition? This question has been the source of bitter political conflict throughout American history. Such conflict was inevitable, James Madison argued in the Federalist Papers, because trade policy involves clashing economic interests. The struggle between the winners and losers from trade has always been fierce because dollars and jobs are at stake: depending on what policy is chosen, some industries, farmers, and workers will prosper, while others will suffer. Douglas A. Irwin’s Clashing over Commerce is the most authoritative and comprehensive history of US trade policy to date, offering a clear picture of the various economic and political forces that have shaped it. From the start, trade policy divided the nation—first when Thomas Jefferson declared an embargo on all foreign trade and then when South Carolina threatened to secede from the Union over excessive taxes on imports. The Civil War saw a shift toward protectionism, which then came under constant political attack. Then, controversy over the Smoot-Hawley tariff during the Great Depression led to a policy shift toward freer trade, involving trade agreements that eventually produced the World Trade Organization. Irwin makes sense of this turbulent history by showing how different economic interests tend to be grouped geographically, meaning that every proposed policy change found ready champions and opponents in Congress. Deeply researched and rich with insight and detail, Clashing over Commerce provides valuable and enduring insights into US trade policy past and present. “Combines scholarly analysis with a historian’s eye for trends and colorful details . . . readable and illuminating, for the trade expert and for all Americans wanting a deeper understanding of America’s evolving role in the global economy.” —National Review “Magisterial.” —Foreign Affairs
