Produktbeschreibung
The Passing of the Tariff is a book written by Raymond Landon Bridgman, first published in 1909. The book is a historical account of the events leading up to the passage of the Payne-Aldrich Tariff Act of 1909, which was a major piece of legislation that significantly impacted the American economy.Bridgman's book provides a detailed analysis of the political and economic factors that influenced the passage of the tariff act. He discusses the various interest groups that were involved in the debate over the tariff, including manufacturers, farmers, labor unions, and consumer advocates. He also examines the role that political parties, individual politicians, and the media played in shaping public opinion on the issue.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of the tariff debate. Bridgman begins by providing an overview of the history of tariffs in the United States, and then goes on to discuss the economic theory behind protectionism and free trade. He also examines the impact of tariffs on specific industries, such as steel, textiles, and agriculture.Throughout the book, Bridgman provides a balanced analysis of the various arguments for and against the tariff, and he does not shy away from criticizing both supporters and opponents of the legislation. He also includes extensive quotes from speeches and debates that took place in Congress and in the media, providing readers with a firsthand account of the political and ideological battles that took place during this period.Overall, The Passing of the Tariff is an important historical document that provides valuable insights into the political and economic debates of the early 20th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of American economic policy, and it remains a relevant and informative resource for scholars and policymakers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
