The jоurnаl PS recently issued а cаll fоr a special issue оn American Trade Policy. The calloutlines the main facts motivating the special issue: “American trade policy is rapidly changing. It is being crafted in novel ways and with rationalesthat diverge from the post-World War II Washington consensus. The US now has higher tariffsthan it has in a century. A resurgence in protectionism may be part of an even larger change inAmerica’s overall role in global politics going forward in the 21st century. While these changesare a particular focus of Donald Trump’s presidency, they reflect long-simmering trends insociety and among policymakers that predate his political ascendance.” Craft an essay helping explain this shift in US trade policy. First, is this unique to the U.S. or arethere similar patterns across other countries? Second, what do you see at the most plausibletheoretical explanations for this shift? Finally, outline an empirical research design that couldhelp test one of these theoretical explanations.
