Dear Researchers, Scientists, Friends,
Do trade wars that restrict international trade based on high tariffs help or rather harm the domestic economy and how does it affect economic globalisation?
In my opinion, trade wars, which involve the imposition of tariffs and other restrictions, have a complex impact on the economy. On the one hand, they can have short-term benefits, such as protecting domestic production and creating jobs. The increased competitiveness of domestic products and the relocation of production back to the country generate new jobs and increase employment. On the other hand, in the long term, they lead to price increases, a weakening of the purchasing power of money and an economic slowdown. Prohibitive tariffs increase the prices of imported goods, which translates into higher costs for consumers and companies. The increase in the prices of goods and services reduces the purchasing power of money, lowering the standard of living of citizens. Retaliatory measures by other countries lead to a reduction in exports and have a negative impact on the economy. Rising prices, reduced trade and the uncertainty associated with trade wars have a negative impact on investment and economic growth. In conclusion, trade wars are a double-edged sword, bringing short-term benefits but leading to negative consequences in the long term. The final outcome depends on many factors, such as the size of the economy, its integration into the global economy and the reaction of other countries. The decision to implement a policy of trade wars should be carefully considered, and it is more beneficial in the long term to strive for open international trade.
In the context of globalisation, prohibitive tariffs can weaken global supply chains, leading to increased production costs and reduced efficiency. Trade wars can also lead to the fragmentation of the global market and its division into smaller, isolated trading blocs, which limits the possibilities for the development of international trade. The uncertainty associated with trade wars has a negative impact on the flow of foreign investment, hindering economic development. In addition, trade wars can exacerbate geopolitical tensions between countries and lead to conflict. In conclusion, protectionism based on high tariffs has a negative impact on economic globalisation. In the short term, it may bring some benefits, but in the long term it leads to negative consequences such as rising prices, reduced purchasing power, slower economic growth and a weakening of global supply chains. The pursuit of free and rules-based international trade is key to ensuring stable and sustainable economic development in the era of globalisation. International cooperation, dialogue and negotiations are essential to resolve trade issues and avoid the negative consequences of trade wars.
