Excerpt from The Tariff Problem
To place the industry of this country on a secure basis, and at the same time to consolidate the British Empire, is a task not yet beyond the power of a bold and constructive statesmanship. The gradual creation of a system of Imperial inter-dependence will, indeed, be the work of a generation; and it will be an exceedingly delicate, and difficult business. What we have now to do is to soberly set our faces in the right direction, and to trust to the common sense and mutual forbearance of the British peoples. That there are great risks to be run in doing anything is only an argument for those who do not recognise that there are greater risks in doing nothing.
In view of my present academic position I may be allowed to add a word of personal explanation. By upbringing and sympathies I am a Liberal.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the economic and political arguments for and against free trade and state interventionism. Written in 1903, the author argues that free trade, once a revolutionary concept, has outlived its usefulness and is no longer appropriate for the economic conditions of the early 20th century. In particular, the author believes that free trade has failed to stimulate domestic manufacturing in the United Kingdom and has, in some sectors, led to a decline in British manufacturing output. The author's analysis and insights remain relevant more than a century later, as the world grapples with questions of globalization and the role of government in the economy.
