The Government of the US discouraged foreign goods to protect domestic goods from foreign competition, using the government in which it chose to restrict the import of goods from foreign countries.

The major reasons for protecting the US from foreign goods are as follows:

1) The government wanted to protect domestic workers from losing their jobs. Free trade would have met the workers of the domestic country exposed to foreign competition, and consequently losing their jobs.

2) The government wanted to protect small industries which mean small industries should be protected by imposing trade restrictions to give them a chance to grow and develop to become more competitive. These industries were now working at a very small stage and incompetent to face the Giants of the global economy.

3) The government wanted to restrict trade as it wanted to prevent the unfair trade practices which are caused due to free trade across the countries. Each country has its trade regulations which may be unfair for some countries. Such differences lead to unfair practices in the domestic market, and when such unfair practices are evident, government restrictions become mandatory.

4) Another important reason for imposing trade barriers was that the country wants to protect national security which is caused due to free trade. National insecurity is caused due to trade when a country becomes dependent upon other countries for the supply of materials or other important resources. When it comes to national security, it is important to protect domestic industries from foreign competition.

5) Finally, trade barriers are introduced by the government for reducing the bargaining in negotiations which are caused due to foreign competition, and restriction becomes an evident asset to reduce such trade negotiations. The bargaining power of the domestic industries is greatly harmed due to foreign competition in such cases government interference becomes necessary for the protection of such industries.

Fittoniya [83]

These are the main factors that led to the rise of Communism:

  • The Communist Manifesto (1848). Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels' work directed towards the proletariat (workers) in a intent for them to rebel against the bourgeoisie that grew rich at their expenses.
  • Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905). This fight over the imperial ambitions in Korea and Manchuria ended with multiple russian defeats and casualties that generated much discontent in the masses.
  • Bloody Sunday. In January 1905, soldiers of the Imperial Guard, fired against unarmed demonstrators that were trying to present a petition to Tsar Nicholas II.
  • 1905 Russian Revolution. As a direct consequence of the Russo-Japanese War and Bloody Sunday, waves of masses moved in discontent with the Imperial Government. Even though the Tsar kept in the throne, the Revolution led to the October Manifesto and the Russian Constitution of 1906.
  • Vladimir Lenin. Lenin was the marxist intellectual who became the leader of the Bolsheviks, a radical group that became an important force in the Revolution.
  • World War I. The unrest of the masses only grew with the administration of the Tsar and Russia's presence in World War I.
  • 1917 Russian Revolution. Two massive revolutions happened in 1917: one in February, that resulted in the abdication of the Tsar and the collapse of the Imperial Government; and other in October that collapsed the Provisional Government, started the Russian Civil War and established the <em>Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic</em>.
