businesses and direct state interventions are some methods of Protectionism.
This is where government actions and policies directly restrict or restrain
international trade with the intention of protecting local businesses and jobs
from foreign competitions.

that they intend to help and protect. They promote free trade as an alternative
and superior solution over protectionism.</span>
