Mostly Economics Podcast #45: Nobody Wins a Trade War with Chad P. Bown
Chad Bown, Peterson Institute for International Economics economist, joins Dean Baker to discuss his new book (co-authored with Soumaya Keynes), How to Win a Trade War. They dig into the real gains from trade, why locking in agreements matters more than tariff levels, lessons from 1980s Japanese auto restraints, and why China's chokehold on rare earths and chips is the trade war actually worth fighting. --- Follow Chad P.
