How could a tariff protect infant industry?

History
1 answer:
ikadub [295]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

It would discourage trade

Explanation:

An infant industry can be defined as a manufacturing industry that is still in the early stage of its growth and development.

Simply stated, an infant industry is an industry that has just been newly established. Thus, infant industries do not have the wherewithal to compete with older industries (established competitors) because they are generally lacking in experience and size.

A tariff can be defined as tax levied by the government of a country on goods and services imported from another country.

According to the infant industry argument, economists agree that developing countries are allowed to place tariffs on import so as to develop their infant industries, diversify their economy and boost their comparative advantage.

Hence, a tariff protects infant industry because it would discourage trade by eliminating the import of goods and services from other countries.

Why were the nomads good at trading?
Jobisdone [24]
Due to their lifestyle, nomads had a special relationship with trade. Nomads are people who do not settle and build cities in one place, but continuously travel. While other societies were able to stay put in one city, and generally figure out how to supply for all or most of their needs in these cities (agriculture, metallurgy, etc), nomads did not have this luxury.

Think of the nomadic people of Central Asia or the caravans of Arabia. These people traveled constantly, often having to find new sources of food and shelter. People with this lifestyle had to be good at trading. It was essential to their survival to figure out what people in various regions needed and were willing to trade for, and to supply those things when they arrived there. Nomads were more reliant on trade due to the nature of their lifestyle, and better at it for the same reason.

They also had the advantage of coming into contact with a diverse range of people, with different products and customs, and were able to serve as middle-men between these societies, enjoying the profits of playing such a role.
